| Description: | 96 Ws / 94 JS / 94 Wa / 93 We / 17+ Jr. #11 Wine Spectator Top 100 2023. There's purity to the cherry, strawberry, rose, mineral and herb aromas and flavors in this solidly built red, which shows excellent balance and length. The muscular finish begs for more time for the beautiful fruit to assimilate. Best from 2025 through 2042. 1,700 cases made, 800 cases imported.--Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator. Lots of blackberry, black-cherry and lavender aromas with some sage. Medium to full body, firm tannins and a fresh finish. Linear and polished red. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. -James Suckling. You drive through a postcard-perfect panorama of cypress-lined roads and sun-lit farmhouses as you approach the tiny hamlet of Bossi on the southern side of the appellation. The organic Castello di Bossi 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione reveals a dark core of black fruit that is surrounded by flinty mineral, spice and black licorice. This wine should become even silkier and softer with more bottle age.-Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate. Woodsy aromas of pine needles and underbrush blend with spices and herbs before a distinctive note of anise takes over on the nose. On the palate, herbaceous, earthy flavors remain dominant, joined by black cherries and finishing with the citric, astringent bite of orange pith.-Wine Enthusiast. Mid-to-deep ruby with the beginning of orange tinges. Soft, elegant nose with cherry and a suggestion of sweet spice. Juicy, lively cherry fruit on the palate with fine, gravelly tannins. Elegant, long, animating and understated.-JancisRobinson |
