Basilica Caffaggio is one of the more famous producers located in the Western Sector of Chianti Classico’s Panzano UGA; specifically the middle elevation band of San Martino in Cecione (approx. 300m elevation). The geology is largely shale.
Popped and poured. The 2018 Caffaggio Chianti Classico pours a bright ruby color with a transparent core and a slightly watery rim; medium viscosity. No obvious staining of the tears and no signs of particles or gas. On the nose, the wine is intense. Funky cherry, red flowers, dried earth, bergamot, and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry and structure is medium+ across the board. The fruits and non-fruits are confirmed with loads of minerals; there is a long savory finish. A very nice Chianti Classico that fits the bill. Drink now or over the next 10 years. — a year ago
Wow! This wine screams for food. So much texture and depth. Went in totally blind on this and was very impressed. — 2 years ago

On the second day I really enjoyed this wine more than I remember having enjoyed it the first day. Perhaps it uncoiled a bit, and revealed for me more length and less upfront fruit. — 15 days ago
