A standard-bearer for traditionally made Chianti Classico, from one of the region's most thoughtful, philosophical winemakers: Castell'in Villa, in the Berardenga hills near Castelnuovo Berardenga in southern Chianti Classico. The estate has long made age-worthy, Sangiovese-driven wines built for the table and the cellar, with none of the modern gloss. The 2016 was a superb Tuscan vintage - balanced, ripe and structured - making this a classic-styled Chianti Classico that drinks well now and will reward a few more years. Glou-glou Tuscan pleasure with real backbone.

More about Castell'in Villa

Principessa Coralia Pignatelli della Leonessa is the thoughtful, philosophical driving force behind Castell'in Villa in Castelnuovo Berardenga at the south end of Chianti Classico. She traveled to Argentina to study Malbec, proving her commitment to understanding wine globally before refining her own approach locally. Old-fashioned farming, indigenous yeast fermentations, aging in neutral old oak—these Sangiovese-based Chianti Classico and Riserva age beautifully and reward patience. This is fine, traditionally made Chianti from someone who takes her time to get things right.
