Sangiovese from Chianti Classico, Tuscany, Italy

Aromas of al dente cherries with citrus peel. Flowers, such as red roses, also come through clearly. Medium to full body, with open grain tannins that caress like cashmere. Chewy, fresh and vivid. Give this three to five years to come together. Try after 2027.

The Barone Ricasoli 2020 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Castello di Brolio CeniPrimo opens to a medium-dark saturated appearance and a slightly more concentrated feel that translates into aromas of cherry liqueur, blackberry, spice and sweet earth. This wine carries a little more fruit weight and textural richness thanks to lower-elevation vineyards and silty riverbed soils. However, this wine also offers a spot of vibrant freshness on the close, and that makes a big difference in a warm vintage like this. It remains meticulously balanced throughout. Production is 11,000 bottles.

The lowest of Ricasoli's three crus, CeniPrimo is from a site at 300m in the Arbia valley on fluvial soils. As a consequence, it's a darker, earthier style compared to the other two crus, gripper and also with stunning acidity. There's a touch of creaminess evident in the background, with touches of earth, pepper and wood . It's very sapid and vertical, with balsamic freshness and lovely purity, but definitely needs more time to show at its best. Labelled as Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Gaiole.
