Re-tasted June2022 - Still a superb CC,ageing perfectly.

A prime example of why i often avoid the higher priced (and usually heavily oaked-infused) Riservas and Gran Selezione Chianti Classicos. The CC normale is pure Tuscany, pure Sangiovese. No resorting to overextraction or oak flavours. Delicious red cherry/raspberry fruit, hints of earth, that wonderful Sangiovese acidity and a long finish. Superior CC, obviously grown and vinified by people who really know and love their vineyard. Superb. Drinking now, should easily hold 3-5 more years. Tasted Nov 2020.
