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, ItalyThe first whiff of this Chianti Classico Riserva might make you tilt your head. The initial aromas sit somewhere between Brett and reduction, with smoky rubber and a hint of sulphur. It takes some time for those notes 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:
