Viticcio Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG 2019 We stayed there for one week during our trip in May 2025 !!!! Press 95WS / WS Top 100 2025 Rank #14 "Aromas of violet and wild herbs give way to flavors of black cherry, blackberry and black currant in this tense, saturated red, which is just beginning to relax and open up now, six years after the harvest. Shows terrific balance, with a long, black pepper infused aftertaste. 5,000 cases made, 2,500 cases imported. Press 93Pts Vs "The 2019 Chianti Classico Riserva is a dark, beguiling wine. Wild cherry, kirsch, sweet tobacco, hard candy and cedar open nicely in the glass. Layered and persistent, with fine balance, the Riserva is another winner in this range. This is an especially dense, weighty style, but it works." Press 92 JS "Attractive nose of dark cherries, dark chocolate, dried herbs, bay leaves and beeswax. Medium-bodied with round tannins. Its polished, balanced and harmonious with a delicious core of juicy fruit and a precise finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink now."
