Gambero Rosso 3 Bicchieri 2024: L’Erta di Radda Chianti Classico 2021
“The 2021 Chianti Classico is a deep, savory wine that is still coming together after its bottling. Crushed flowers, herbs, mint, spice and white pepper lend notable aromatic complexity throughout. I would not plan on opening a bottle for at least another year or two. The 2021 has tons of fruit and overall depth, but the elements have not fully come together. It’s a wine of real character and personality that captures all the pedigree of this great vintage. Time in the glass brings out all sorts of mineral and savory complexity. Readers will have a hard time keeping their hands off.” 93 points - Antonio Galloni, Vinous.
