Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2022

Surprised by the lower ratings for this producer on Delectable. I found this to be a quite nice Chianti with good red fruits, some dark notes, and excellent acid. Entry level and perhaps slightly more modern. A slight chill is helpful. For the price this is an easy one to like. — 2 days ago

Fattoria Selvapiana

Vigneto Bucerchiale Riserva Chianti Rùfina Sangiovese 2017

The 2017 was opened for a quick glass, and then gassed for overnight storing. Day 2: It has an engaging ruby/garnet color, perfumed red/blue aromatics, and confirming red/blue fruit flavors. Solidly structured and well balanced with crisp acidity and soft mouth coating tannins at the satisfying finish. Irrespective of vintage, Bucerchiale never fails to deliver, always showing well above its price point. The 2017 vintage is no different. — 19 days ago
