San Felice "IL GRIGIO" Chianti Classico Riserva
| Vintage: | 2020 |
|---|---|
| Description: | This comes from the southern part of Castelnuovo Berardenga, a warmer part of Chianti Classico that tends toward a generously-fruited, spicy, dark-toned character that quickly develops leather and tobacco accents, and rounder tannins in the mouth; nevertheless, calcareous soils contribute to a vigorous structure of juicy acidity and grippy supporting tannins to frame and support it. Wine Spectator 93 Points - " Bright and fruity, offering cherry, strawberry, rose and Mediterranean scrub flavors. Shows no shortage of structure, remaining balanced and long. Reveals tobacco and mineral elements on the finish. Best from 2025 through 2042.". "Reverting to a spicy and savory taste profile, the 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva Il Grigio (with an ample 320,000 bottles made) shows a dark, mid-weight texture with extra heft that comes in the form of baked plum, candied cherry and spice. This is another good value wine from one of the most beautiful properties (and luxury hotels) in Italy." - Monica Larner, Wine Advocate |
