What Critics Think

Wine Spectator : 93 Points

(7/29/2024) Cherry, raspberry, blood orange and floral aromas and flavors come together in this vibrant red. Offers earth, Mediterranean herb and oak spice hints, while assertive tannins leave a firm grip. Best from 2026 through 2033. 4,500 cases made, 1,800 cases imported.

Decanter : 92 Points

(2/14/2024) Once again, Poggerino’s Piero Lanza puts out one of the most successful annata of the vintage thus far. His 11 hectares in Radda sit mainly on Galestro soil with an underpinning of clay rather than sand, giving seriously structured wines. Dense fruit and spice greet the nose, with glossy dark red cherry, mint and cinnamon following through on the palate. Impressive substance is backed up by chewy, layered tannins, gracious rather than austere, dissolving slowly into the crunchy currants that draw out the finish. Vibrant and impressive. Drinking Window: 2024 - 2031.

Vinous - Antonio Galloni : 91 Points

(6/2024) The 2022 Chianti Classico is a pretty rich wine for Il Poggerino. It shows the heat and dryness of the year in its intense dark red fruit. Even so, Piero Lanza has done a terrific job of avoiding the hard tannins that penalize other wines. This plush, open-knit Chianti Classico will drink well right out of the gate. Drinking Window: 2024 - 2032.
