"The 2022 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna Mezzapiaggia is packed with dark fruit, leather, incense, liquorice, chocolate, menthol and dried herbs. The Mezzapiaggia has come together well since I tasted it last year. It offers quite a bit of depth, with potent tannins to match. This is an especially bombastic style for Angela Fronti." -Antonio Galloni

"A new entry to add to the estate's already impressive line-up of Gran Selezione, the 2022 Vigna Mezzapiaggia is breathtaking, starting with its enticing aromas of fragrant blue flower, dark spice, cedar and warm hay. Firmly structured and elegant, the palate features succulent Marasca cherry, licorice, graphite and grilled herb accompanied by firm, refined tannins. Drink 2027–2037." -Kerin O'Keefe
