Isole e Olena Vin Santo del Chianti Classico 2008

Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(7/2019) "The 2008 Vin Santo del Chianti Classico is fabulous. Rich, deep and exotically beautiful, the 2008 has so much to offer. Ten years in small casks yielded a Vin Santo loaded with personality, complexity and character. Orange confit, burnt sugar, dried herbs, spice and caramel are some of the many notes that lift out of the glass. A touch of Petit Manseng (unusual in Vin Santo) helps brighten the acids. If I had to pick only one bottle to demonstrate what Vin Santo is all about, it might very well be Isole e Olena's 2008, as it is a real reference-point of both excellence and pedigree. Drinking window: 2020 - 2035."

Fattoria di Felsina "Rancia" Chianti Classico Riserva 2017
93
Decanter
(2/17/20) "In 2017, Giovanni Poggiali describes the work in the vineyard as focused on the vines' root system to reduce water stress. Harvest started 15 days earlier than average and at the beginning of September he did a qualitative thinning to get rid of any shrivelled bunches or those showing problems with ripening. Felsina's flagship wine, Rancia is still brooding. Plum and tar show up on a backdrop of vanilla and exotic spice. Though fruit is supple, layers of assertive tannins need time to loosen their grip. Appetizingly savoury, this finishes with an intense, irony character."

Montesecondo "Tin" Sangiovese Toscana Rosso 2017
96
Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(8/2020) "The 2017 Tin, 100% Sangiovese done in amphora, is a total knock-out. It is a riveting wine from proprietor Silvio Messana. Time in the glass reveals a wine of unreal complexity and bright, explosive energy. Sage, menthol, tobacco and dried flower accents complement the Sangiovese fruit in this striking wine. In a word: superb. Drinking window: 2022 - 2037."

Poggerino "Bugialla" Chianti Classico Riserva 2016

Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(8/2019) "The 2016 Chianti Classico Riserva Bugialla is a total knock-out. Plush, dark and explosive, the 2016 possesses superb depth and textural richness. Super-ripe black cherry, plum, espresso, licorice, new leather and spice all flesh out in a heady, super-distinctive Riserva loaded with class and personality. The 2016 is fabulous in every way, but I especially admire its explosive energy. Drink 2024 - 2041."

Castello di Bossi Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2015

James Suckling
(4/23/2019) "This is a fabulous Sangiovese with super fine tannins that melt into the wine. I love the cherry, orange-peel and floral character. So fine and polished. Agile and floating across the palate. Drinkable now, but ever better in 2021."

Castello di Volpaia Chianti Classico Riserva 2017
93
Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(9/2020) "The 2017 Chianti Classico Riserva Castello di Volpaia is an immensely rewarding, inviting wine. Juicy and racy, with no hard edges, the Riserva captures the allure of this warm, dry year. There is plenty to like in the 2017, starting with its depth and volume, I won't be surprised if the Riserva turns out to be even better than this note suggests. Sweet red fruit, cedar and blood orange give the 2017 striking aromatic intensity and lift. Drinking Window: 2022 - 2037."

Vinous, Antonio Galloni
94/100 - Vinous, Antonio Galloni (8/2020) "The 2017 Chianti Classico is supple, racy and inviting, with striking textural depth and phenomenal balance. Succulent dark cherry fruit gives the 2017 much of its immediacy and appeal. Silky, plush and exceptionally harmonious, the 2017 captures all of the natural radiance of the year. Sweet floral and spice notes add lift to this sophisticated, beautifully polished Chianti Classico from Montesecondo. Quite simply, this is a phenomenal wine for the vintage. Drinking window: 2020 - 2037."

Poggerino Chianti Classico 2018
92
Our Score
(1/2021) We have long been fans of the outstanding Chianti from this small, family-owned, organic winery. The 2018 is more elegant and approachable than previous vintages, while still maintaining impressive balance and structure. Ripe red fruit aromas waft out of the glass with a swirl. Classic flavors of mushroom, cedar and suede are complemented by a lengthy, velvety finish. Perfect with antipasto, pizza, pasta with meat ragu or mushroom risotto, this bottle is only going to make your meal better!

(9/2020) "The 2017 Chianti Classico is fabulous. Bright, punchy and so full of character, the 2017 is absolutely delicious. Sweet berry, cedar, tobacco, rose petal and subtle earthy notes all grace the 2017, an exquisite wine that will drink well with minimal cellaring. More than anything, I am so impressed with the wine's energy."

Tenuta di Arceno Chianti Classico Riserva 2016
93
Wine Advocate
(9/19/2019) "The 2016 Chianti Classico Riserva is a nicely integrated and seamless wine, with satisfying fullness and richness. It reveals a very contemporary bouquet with black cherry covered in chocolate. The wine is thinner in the mouth, and the tannins make their presence known. But overall, it shows a very streamlined construction. Pair it with a French onion soup. The blend is 90% Sangiovese and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon aged in French barrique for 12 months. Some 29,000 bottles were released. Again, Tenuta di Arceno gives you great value for your money. Drink Date 2019 - 3032."
