"A very fine riserva with black-cherry, walnut with some cedar aromas and flavors. It’s medium-bodied with lovely tension and a fresh finish. Racy and refined. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold."

"The 2019 Chianti Classico Riserva is slightly deeper ruby-hued and brings a touch more density and depth, with ripe black and red fruits, savory Mediterranean herbs, spicy wood, and graphite-driven aromatics.
