Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Jan 18
The 2015 Chianti Classico is one of the very best wines in its class. Rich, ample and creamy, it is endowed with serious volume to match its racy personality. Even so, there is more than enough Sangiovese freshness to ensure many years of fine drinking. Expressive floral notes give the wine just the right amount of aromatic lift to balance some of the natural richness of the year. What a gorgeous wine this is!

Tuscany, a renowned wine region in central Italy, is famous for its high-quality Sangiovese-based wines. Key styles include Chianti, with vibrant acidity and red fruit flavours; Chianti Classico, known for greater depth; and Brunello di Montalcino, prized for its rich, full-bodied character and ageing potential. Tuscany also produces prestigious Super Tuscan wines that blend Sangiovese with international varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon. Top producers are Antinori, for Tignanello; Castello di Ama, for Chianti Classico; and Biondi-Santi, for Brunello.
