Professional Ratings

• 93 James Suckling
  A wonderfully floral Chianti Classico with jasmine and elderberry flowers not to mention smoke, plums and light chocolate. Medium to light body, soft tannins and fresh acidity.
• 92 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
  The 2015 Chianti Classico is a polished and immediate wine that puts forth a beautiful bouquet built on solid layers of healthy primary fruit. The wine offers expansive aromas of cherry liqueur, cola, licorice and balsam herb. That unique vertical intensity you see here is what sets the wine apart. In fact, it may even show minimal volatility or other similar so-called imperfections, although this quality serves to build the momentum and the persistence of the wine. I love the style put forth here.

  Aromas of truffle, leather, menthol and mature plum take the lead on this concentrated red. The aromas follow through to the full-bodied, chewy palate along with fleshy black cherry, licorice and dried herb. Close-grained tannins provide the assertive framework. Drink 2019–2025.
