Score 91/100 · Drink 2019-2028, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Aug 2019

The 2016 Chianti Classico is floral, delicate and very nicely lifted. Silky tannins and mid-weight structure give the 2016 its feeling of delicacy and nuance. Bright red berry fruit, spice and floral notes are all laced together in this attractive, gracious Chianti Classico from Tenuta di Carleone. The 2016 is 100% Sangiovese done with a touch of whole clusters that spent two months on the skins.

Very fresh and bright with cherry, ash, stone and cement. Medium body, very fine tannins and a crisp finish. Pure sangiovese. Polished and refined. Drink now.
