Tasting note:

“Nipozzano 2019 has a vibrant ruby-red colour. The nose presents fruity hints of berries and black cherry, as well as elegant
floral notes. The fresh quality provided by the balsamic notes is simply wonderful. These are followed by roasted and
spiced notes of pepper, nutmeg and coffee. On the palate, the wine is rich, characterised by the elegant density of the
grapes and the mineral freshness of the finish that make it balanced and persistent. The tannins are dense but not abrasive.
The taste and smell correspond beautifully.” – Winemaker

“A fruity and bright Nipozzano with currant and cherry aromas and flavors. Juicy and vivid, with some fine tannins. Linear and bright. Lovely energy.” – James Suckling 92

“Frescobaldi 2019 Riserva (Chianti Classico). A sweet and lush nose of cedar, vanilla and berries is nonetheless kept in check by savory aromas of pepper, spices and herbs. The palate leans into the spicy side of things alongside cherries and berries, with a saliva-inducing acidity boost.” – Wine Enthusiast 91
