Description
93 points James Suckling
"A layered and juicy red with currant, cedar and some walnut character. It’s full and savory with lovely fruit and real Chianti Classico character in the undertones of mushrooms and bark."
91 points Wine Enthusiast
"Black cherries, figs, tar and a final herbaceous element that moves from sage to eucalyptus on the nose develop into a palate of more cherries with the essence of orange peel, with an overall buoyancy provided by easygoing tannins and a streak of acidity."
Jancis Robinson
"Castelnuovo Berardenga. 100% Sangiovese. Certified organic.
Deep, lustrous ruby with orange tinges. Pure cherry nose with a hint of black earth. Concentrated, compact cherry fruit on the palate that still needs to unfurl, and with lots of juicy tannins. Richly tannic on the finish but without overpowering the fruit. Has all the building blocks to age gracefully. 17++/20 points. (WS)"
Vinous Reverie Notes
Made from 100% Sangiovese, grown in soils with high chalk content, this wine shows just how good this varietal can taste. Tasting Notes: Deep, ruby-red in color, this Chianti Classico offers aromas of ripe cherries and red plums, with subtle notes of toasted vanilla beans and purple flowers. On the palate, the wine displays a superbly structured character with bright acidity and a pleasantly savory finish. Food Pairing: Pair this wine with grilled steak tips and ratatouille.
