Like some of the other new releases from Podere la Cappella, this wine feels a bit hot, and indeed it shows a 15% alcohol content. The 2018 Chianti Classico Riserva Querciolo is draped in heavy fruit weight with cherry liqueur, dried grass, earth and black olive. To the palate, the wine is rich and a touch syrupy. Fruit comes from 23-year-old vines, and only 3,000 bottles were made.
