Chianti Classico Riserva Vallepicciola 2018 (1.5L)

93 Points, James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com: "An inky nose with licorice and dried herbs. Full-bodied with a good, silky core of ripe dark fruit and berries. Jasmine and oolong come through. Smooth, velvety tannins that are coated in delicious fruit. Lovely texture and balance here. Drink now or hold." 10/21

97+ points, Luca Gardini, Gardini Notes: “Structured and complex, but still very drinkable, the Riserva of Vallepicciola. Notes of black currant on the nose, then undergrowth but also balsamic touches, of eucalyptus. The drink is crisp but, above all, the palate is taut, with salty tannins </br>and a balsamic and undegrowth return.”
