Famiglia Zingarelli Rocca delle Macie Chianti Classico Riserva 50th Anniversary 2020
Florence, Tuscany, ItalyMade in a flinty, reductive style, very much on trend if atypical for Chianti, this slowly reveals bright red cherry and strawberry that's lifted by rose petals. It's a sleek, modern wine with juicy acidity and carefully managed tannins that feels almost Burgundian in character. Boy, there's a lot here for the price and I bet it's a sneaky cellar candidate, too.Tasted: 13 December 2024Tasted by: Prices:

Famiglia Zingarelli Rocca delle Macie Chianti Classico Riserva 50th Anniversary 2020
Florence, Tuscany, ItalyIt took some time for the initial whiff of smoky rubber and a hint of sulphur to dissipate. Beneath them, however, lies beautiful juicy red cherry and plum, mingled with the wine's wild, gamey nature. On the palate, the tannins of this 4 year old wine remain firm and sinewy, providing a nice backbone alongside vibrant acidity.Tasted: 13 December 2024Tasted by: Prices:
