James Suckling: 93 Points
"This has notes of blackberries, charred sage, tomato leaves, chocolate orange and crushed gravel. It’s medium-bodied with bright acidity. Lovely, creamy yet firm tannins."
Wine Spectator: 93 Points
"This red draws you in with the purity and depth of its cherry, raspberry, iron, tobacco and black tea aromas and flavors, while the dense structure lends support. Balanced, yet needs more time to really shine, with juicy acidity defining the lingering aftertaste. Sangiovese and Canaiolo. Best from 2024 through 2038."
Wine Advocate: 91 Points
"Here's another incredible value. The 2019 Chianti Classico Riserva (a blend of mostly Sangiovese with other local grapes in a supporting role) shows balance from a classic vintage. Black fruit is interwoven with spice, crushed stone and grilled herb. All of the elements here are in place to showcase this promising Tuscan appellation. The house style is on the more extracted side, but that's also a trait of this vintage."
Vinous Media: 91 Points
"The 2019 Chianti Classico Riserva is dark, fleshy and super-expressive. Dark red cherry, plum, spice, leather and blood orange flesh out in a potent, earthy Riserva loaded with character. This bold, flavorful Riserva has quite a bit to offer."
