Badia a Coltibuono Chianti Classico 2018
Tuscany, ItalyThis CC comes from Gaiole in Chianti, in the southeastern part of the appellation. This organic Sangiovese is tipped with 10% indigenous grapes, and rooted in the sandy, stony albarese soils of the area, at 250-350m. After a native ferment in stainless, this aged on year in French and Austrian casks of varying sizes. Bright and stony, with fragrant cherries, raspberries, plum, red currants on a textural palate, bedded with river stones, and lofted with easy acidity. Tannins are long and lithe, drawing this to a humming limestone finish. This finessed wine is showing beautifully now, but has time in cellar ahead.Tasted: 08 April 2021Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $39.95 | 750ml | private wine shops |
