The organic San Giusto a Rentennano 2019 Chianti Classico is another excellent buy from a tight group of iconic Tuscan wine estates. This vintage, made with 95% Sangiovese and 5% Canaiolo, is pure and tonic in character. There are clearly etched aromas of blueberry, wild cherry, limestone and crushed stone. These are essential aromas to any traditional expression of Chianti Classico, and this wine delivers them with terrific simplicity and balance. Fruit is sourced from across a 30-hectare vineyard with south-facing exposures. Some 46,560 bottles were made.

A taut red, marked by a core of black cherry flavor, with earth and forest floor notes leaving a savory finish. Lively and focused, with a tannic grip that lends an austere feel now, so give this a little time or enjoy its current decadence. Sangiovese and Canaiolo. Best from 2024 through 2035. 4,000 cases made, 700 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Chianti Classico Select to Add
