This wonderful 2021 Toscana Rosso perfectly illustrates how a classic Chianti can be generous and friendly while still being classy and restrained. The bright, colorful and highly aromatic Sangiovese fruit is packed with energy and texture, while the rustic iron-y/leathery nuance you expect dances below the surface. The fresh acidity animates it even further. The entire package is suspended on a firm, but supple frame that holds it all together perfectly. Vintage: 2021 Country: Italy Region: Tuscany Appellation: Toscana IGT Grapes: Sangiovese, Colorino, Mammolo, Foglia Tonda, Ciliegiolo Farming: Biodynamic Drink: Now-2035

The 2021 Le Trame is everything I hoped it would be. Intensely aromatic, silky and deep, with explosive fruit, the 2021 is a rapturously beautiful wine that captures proprietor Giovanna Morgante at her very best. Readers will have to be patient, as the 2021 needs time to be at its most expressive, but its potential is already evident from the very early going. Le Boncie could very well turn out to be Italy's next superstar estate. Readers will want to snap up these wines before that becomes apparent to the public. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, July 2024)
