In the bottle with the black label, this is a very pretty, relatable and well-priced wine from Tuscany. Made with 100% Sangiovese, the 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva Brolio offers blueberry, plum and sweet spice thanks to 18 months of tonneaux aging. I especially appreciate the wine's pronounced mineral signature that gives the wine a salty or savory side. Drink 2023-2032. —M.L.
Ripe and pure, with a jeweled ruby color, the 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva offers a lovely nose of candied raspberry, fresh violets, sweet herbs, and mossy earth. Full-bodied, it offers up a plush texture with ripe meaty fruit, sweet tannins, and a clean finish. Harmonious and ripe, with a refined touch.
A savory version, this Chianti Classico delivers green olive, tomato leaf, iron and tobacco flavors centered on a core of macerated cherry fruit. Though lean and sinewy, this is also intense and focused, with a lingering aftertaste that feels the pull of both the savory and fruity sides. Best from 2025 through 2038.
