Chianti Classico Castello di Volpaia 2019 (750ML)

91 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous: "The 2019 Chianti Classico is an attractive, mid-weight wine. Silky and beautifully perfumed, this mid-weight Chianti Classico is a terrific example of the lithe style that is so typical of Radda. Crushed flowers, mint, sweet red berries and tobacco linger." 09/21

90 Points, Michaela Morris, Decanter: "Located in the township of Radda, Volpaia’s southeast- to southwest-facing vineyards reach 600 metres above sea level. The annata is crafted from diverse parcels planted between 1972 and 2004. Still subtle in its expression, this takes some time to open up, then reveals decisive fennel, red plum, white pepper and lavender. Velvety fruit is ripe yet crunchy, punctuated by herbal notes, while the discreet powdery tannins are youthful and grapey in natural. Modest yet delicious."

96 Points, Luca Gardini, Gardini Notes: "A stunning Classico full of ‘alfa’ characteristics. Raspberry jam at the nose, with hints of fresh thyme and undergrowth, the mouthfeel is taut, salty </br>tannins, a wonderful acidity, with density and firmness. The aftertaste is both fruity and officinal. Excellent drinkability." 04/21
