Red plums and berries vie with a fair dose of oak on the nose and palate, where the fresh fruit is riding the firm fruit and oak tannins well. Medium-bodied with good balance for aging, though for riserva lovers it’s approachable even now.

The 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva is laced with copious dark fruit, leather and sweet spice. There's plenty of depth and appeal, but the oak imprint is also quite strong. With a bit less oak this could be a materially transparent expression of Sangiovese, but it is undoubtedly very well done.
