The 2018 Chianti Classico Riserva is a powerful, burly wine. Black cherry, incense, tobacco, scorched earth and licorice bring out the darker side of Sangiovese. I would give the tannins here a few years to soften. There's a ton of personality here, no question about it. That said, it would be great to see a bit more finesse.

Youthful crimson. A nose that is a little closed and reluctant to open up. Supple, concentrated and tannic fruit that ticks all the boxes. Still all components need to come together, but this is a hugely promising wine.

Spicy and brooding, the 2018 Chianti Classico Riserva shows off its depth with cherry liqueur, black licorice candy, lavender, and leather. It is medium to full-bodied, with ripe, present tannins and notes of black raspberry, dried sage, and warming baked earth. Its structure and savory herbal side beg to be served alongside a Florentine or rich cut of steak drizzled liberally with olive oil.
