  The 2014 Chianti Classico is a surprisingly powerful, potent wine. Black cherry, smoke, licorice and dark spices fill out the wine's ample frame effortlessly. The sheer depth and intensity are impressive and show why this is such a great site. Sweet rose petal, spice and mint are some of the many nuances that blossom as the wine sits in the glass. Put simply, this is one of the wines of the vintage. (AG)

  A warm red for the vintage with chocolate, spice and berry character. Medium body, soft tannins and a decadent finish. Drink now.

  A cool menthol note permeates this wine’s red berry flavors, adding lift and freshness. The flavors take on more weight with time in the glass, developing baking-spice notes and a braised meat savor. It’s a lively match for rabbit ragù.

  You might have heard that the 2014 vintage was difficult in Chianti and it was, that means producers make less and sometimes declassify wines down into the less specific wines. That's this wine no San Marcellino this year but OMG this wine is outstanding, The nose is full of wild cherries and earth, bits of leather, hints of truffle, spice, it is really amazing. On the palate the wine has richness, structure, balance and shows lots of complexity. It finishes with a well balanced richness, supple and structured, and it drinks really well now. Try it with your next grilled meat.
  Drink from 2017 to 2024

  Here is one our most popular wines from Tuscany! The 2014 reminds me a lot of the 2004 vintage, black cherries, spicy oak, and a touch of earth. In the mouth, the wine is full-bodied, with fine concentration, with well integrated & soft tannins. Enjoy tonight (needs decanting time, an hour or so) and over the next few years. Two BIG Thumbs up !!!
