Chianti Classico Stielle Gran Selezione 2018

- 93 points -

The 2018 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Stielle is a very pretty wine. Crushed flowers, tobacco, cedar, leather and mint are very nicely lifted. The 2018 is a bit slender and also a touch forward. Even so, it is so well balanced that those qualities don't matter much. I would not push my luck on aging. The 2018 can only be described as exquisite.
