Winery Notes:

Villa Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva 2019 is ruby red in color. On the nose aromas of small red fruit and floral hints of lavender lead over to spicy notes of cloves and sweet tobacco. The rich bouquet is completed by impressions of graphite, white chocolate, and mint. A mouth filling entry with supple tannins is sustained by excellent freshness. The finish echoes aromatic notes perceived on the nose.

Here's an interesting bit of news. This wine is a blend of fruit from four villages in Chianti Classico. However, those single vineyards will soon be bottled as their own distinct Gran Selezione wines. For now, we have the 2019 Chianti Classico Riserva Villa Antinori. This was a productive vintage that resulted in good yields thanks to abundant rainfall at the beginning of the season. The wine's tension and firmness remind me of the classic 2016 vintage, but 2019 ultimately shows more richness and accessibility. This wine is layered with dark fruit, crushed stone and pretty spice.

This is very refined, with lots of sangiovese character, showing sour cherries, peaches, and bark, as well as pine needles. Medium-bodied and deliciously attractive. Fine tannins at the end.

Ripe and brooding aromas of graphite, kirsch, mocha, and candied lavender emerge from the 2019 Chianti Classico Riserva Villa Antinori, with a generous yet balanced frame. It is full bodied and approachable, with polished tannins and notes of black raspberry, turned soil, and cedar. Allow a few more years in the cellar and drink 2025-2037.

Savory notes dominate the nose of this Chianti Classico Riserva, from tomato and pepper to soil and tobacco leaf, before a rich layer of cherries and chocolate comes through. Cherries and chocolate continue on the palate, with a meaty earthiness that leans into tannins and acid just beginning to mellow pleasantly.

A dense, beefy red, with black cherry, blackberry, earth and iron flavors coursing through. Balanced, in a compact sort of way, with a lingering finish of earth and dark fruit. Bright acidity drives the finish. Best from 2024 through 2033. 6,000 cases imported.
