90pts Jeb Dunnuck

A jeweled ruby color, the 2021 Chianti Classico is ripe and has a great nose of fresh wild herbs, pure raspberry, graphite, and fresh violets. Medium-bodied, its more cedar tones come through on the palate, with ripe, very well-integrated tannins, clean lift, and a hint of its toasted incense on the finish. A very well-balanced wine from Carpineto.

Winemaker Notes

Ruby red, garnet reflections on aging. The nose is intense with hints of violets, berries and cherries. The palate is velvety, well-rounded, full bodied and well balanced.

Pairs well with grilled red meats and game.
