Volpaia's Chianti Classico Riserva is dynamite. This is where Volpaia hits their stride, celebrating a wine's unique place of origin while also focusing on drinkability and the balance that creates ageability in a wine.
Volpaia's Riserva is a blend of its best vineyards, all farmed organically, harvested and vinified separately, and aged for 24 months in oak. The result is a finely-structured wine with smooth tannins, and a mesmerizing finish.

The 2018 Chianti Classico Riserva is fabulous. There are more 'important' wines in the range, but the Riserva delivers superb quality for the money. Succulent dark cherry, plum, mocha, spice and cloves show a darker side of Sangiovese that is quite attractive. Ample and virile in feel, the 2018 has the stuffing to develop well for many years to come.
