The 2020 Chianti Classico is dark, fleshy and totally seductive. Ripe red cherry, plum, mocha, rose petal, leather and spice flesh out effortlessly. A wine of substance and real depth, the 2020 is truly exquisite. All the elements are so well-balanced.
Wine Advocate

The certified organic 2020 Chianti Classico is 90% Sangiovese with smaller parts Canaiolo and Coloring, two of the appellation's complementary indigenous red grapes. This wine shows nice balance, dark fruit and a soft texture. Volume and support (the wine is aged in large oak casks for 12 months) is capped by bright acidity. Achieving this steady quality with 200,000 bottles made is quite a feat.
