Il Molino di Grace Chianti Classico Riserva 2015
Tuscany, ItalyIl Molino di Grace, the windmill of grace, stands upon 30 hectares of vineyards that have been producing traditional Chianti Classico for over 350 years, and is complete with a historic 19th-century windmill and world-class sculptures. The 2015 vintage a terrific backdrop to this sangiovese riserva with its pure dark cherry and hint of game. The perfect mix of traditional and modern, this riserva's yields are a respectably low 37 hl/ha of organic fruit. It is an impressive Riserva and one that will repay cellaring. I enjoyed it with spaghetti Bolognese now, but it will improve in the bottle through 2023. The vineyard sits between 280 and 400 metres, and fruit is all hand-harvested in late October. It gets 20 days of maceration with frequent punch downs before ageing 12 months in a mix of Slavonian oak casks, French barriques, and tonneaux of second use.Tasted: 21 February 2020Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $55.99 | 750ml | private wine shops |
