2020 Castell'in Villa Chianti Classico

Castell'in Villa is one of Chianti Classico's most historic and respected estates, celebrated for its traditional approach and wines of remarkable harmony, precision, and longevity. Their elegant style consistently produces Sangiovese that is both refined and age-worthy, balancing structure with finesse. The 2020 vintage reflects the warmth of the growing season, offering a riper, more powerful expression while maintaining the estate's signature grace. Layers of black cherry, violet, savory herbs, spice, crushed stone, and a hint of smoke unfold across the palate with impressive texture and energy. Although the wine is already beautifully approachable, its balance and structure promise many years of development in the cellar.

"There is incredible subtle complexity in this Chianti Classico. The nose shows licorice, bergamot, potpourri, violets and red cherries. The palate is graceful, with vibrant blood orange flavors, refreshing acidity and velvety, fine-grained tannins. Drink now or hold."
-James Suckling, 96 Points
