The history of the Ricasoli-Firidolfi family in Tuscany is a rich tapestry of kings and statesmen, its fabric woven together with the vine. For more than 37 generations, this ancient family has cultivated grapes and crafted wines in Monti in Chianti, the “very best area” of Chianti Classico, according to Antonio Galloni. Suave and balanced; tart cherries, light pepper, baking spices. A traditional, flavorful and outstanding blend of Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino. One of the finest organically raised Chianti Classicos in the region, vintage after vintage.

Vibrant, if not elegant. Intense nose of ripe but sour cherry, lots of intense minerality. In the mouth it’s angular, intense, and acidic, but . . . in a kind of a good way. Great with pasta.

Still young. Tart, nice cherry fruit with med+ acidity. Would decant or wait and year or 2.

One of the best Chianti Classico wines I’ve had in a while…. Chocolate/Coffee/Feral nose. Dense and chewy. Finishes tannic with dark cherry. This was L 240 21

It’s fine albeit boring like most Chianti in this price range. Much better expressions of Sangiovese out there than this.
