2019 Chianti Classico, Castello dei Rampolla
Packed full of sour cherry, lavender and black fruits with ripe and full tannins, this is a powerhouse of a chianti. Impressive now, it will reward cellaring as well.

The 2019 Chianti Classico is an explosion of aromas and flavors. Freshly cut, flowers and red/purplish fruit abound. A classic example of the year, Rampolla’s Chianti Classico is flat-out gorgeous and one of the best recent editions I can remember tasting. The 2019 is a blend of Sangiovese (aged in cask) plus dollops of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon (done in French oak).
