CRITIC REVIEWS
Richard Hemming MW
Bold black fruit on the nose. Succulent and candied on the palate, thanks in part to plentiful vanilla oak. Firm tannic grip. Smoky finish. Brooding. (RH)
Aldo Fiordelli
Forward plum and cherry aromas are accompanied by black pepper, clove and the typical floral notes of the Chianti Classico area like orris and violet. Darker on the palate, it displays chocolate notes with a balsamic character - peppermint in depth - and a delicate coconut finish. Full and powerful, it has firm acidity and compact tannins, finding great balance due to its amazing concentration of fruit. Of the 50% new wood used in 2017, a small proportion of oak was sourced from Hungary, helping the wine to open up a little bit according to Antinori CEO, Renzo Cotarella.
