Chianti Classico Altola Montefioralle 2021

- 94 points -

The inaugural release, Altolà is the only one of Jurij Fiore’s Chianti Classico wines not from the Lamole township. Instead, the vineyard is found across the Greve Valley, on Montefioralle’s upper clay slopes at 450 metres. Toasty, macerated red cherry is complemented by hints of clove. The sweet spice-infused palate is round, full and lush. Yet underneath a sumptuousness of fruit, this is mineral edged, with zippy acidity, while pliant tannins grip on the finish. This textural and flavourful red should show some of its more subtle nuances with time.
