Description
92 points Vinous
"The 2017 Chianti Classico is bright, floral and beautifully lifted, with lovely red berry and rose petal character. Pliant and supple, with terrific balance, the Querciabella 2017 is one of the more refined, restrained Chianti Classicos readers will come across in this vintage, with Radda very much driving the personality of the wine in its aromatic and red fruit profile. The 2017 finishes with terrific energy and nuance. This is the second vintage in which most of the wine was aged predominantly in 500L barrels and 30HL casks."
92 points Falstaff
"Bright ruby. Wonderful, candid nose, of ripe cherries and raspberries, flamboyant fruit bouquet, delicately savoury, appealing. On the palate fresh cranberries, fruity mouthfeel, juicy and distinct, beautifully coating the palate through to the finish."
Jancis Robinson
"Greve in Chianti. 100% Sangiovese.
Youthful ruby. Classy nose of sweet red fruit, oak and stones and hints of mint. Elegant, juicy and almost a little linear. A wine that contradicts the torrid vintage. 17/20 points. (WS)"
