Description

A bottle of Marchese Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva 2018, a blend of 90% Sangiovese, 10% Cabernet Franc from one of Italy's most celebrated wine estates. The Antinori family have been making wine in Tuscany since 1385.

'This wine is made exclusively with fruit from the gorgeous Tenuta Tignanello in San Casciano Val di Pesa (home to its namesake wine Tignanello, and Solaia) and sees mostly Sangiovese blended with a smaller part Cabernet Sauvignon and other complementary grapes. The Marchesi Antinori 2018 Chianti Classico Riserva Marchese Antinori vaunts a smooth and silky personality with ample berry definition and brightness. The previous 2017 vintage revealed more black and purple fruits because of the scorching hot and dry summer that year, but this wine from the cooler 2018 growing season focuses on red raspberry and cherry instead. That fruit is framed by light spice (from Hungarian and French oak) and licorice.93/100' Monica Larner, robertparker.com, 2021
