Compared to the annata wine, this Riserva shows a greater sense of overall balance and elegance. The organic Cantalici 2018 Chianti Classico Riserva Baruffo reveals a mid-weight texture with focused aromas of cherry, earth, rose and crushed stone. The vines are planted at a cool 550 meters in elevation in a mix of schistous galestro and limestone alberese soils. This is a production of 10,000 bottles.

Made with organic fruit, the Cantalici 2016 Chianti Classico Riserva Baruffo has evolved slightly past its prime, or at least my bottle seems to have done so. The wine presents aged aromas of dried fruit, cassis, spice and red clay or Tuscan terracotta. However, you get a good amount of ripeness here, leading to thicker and richer layers that give momentum to the mouthfeel.

Showing good power and intensity, the 2015 Chianti Classico Riserva Baruffo mirrors the qualities of this warm and sunny vintage with dark cherry and dried blackberry backed by tilled earth, tobacco and spice. The fruit is a little dried out and lean, so I would suggest drinking this wine in the medium term with a sausage and artichoke frittata. Some 10,000 bottles were made.

The 2013 Chianti Classico Riserva Baruffo is a fragrant and full red wine with plump cherry and dark plum followed by leather, licorice and grilled herb. There is a lingering flavor of scorched earth or toasted chestnut on the finish. The grapes are destemmed and cold soaked before fermentation. The completed wine is aged for 18 months, mostly in French oak but a part only sees stainless steel in order to maintain that fresh fruit profile.
