It’s great to have a Chianti of this caliber in such wide distribution domestically — you should have no trouble locating a bottle. That said, you may not want to wait too long to seek it out after another big score is attached to it. Cherry, sage, complementary brown spice and racy acidity deliver just what you’re after. Go get it! A Platinum Award Winner at the 2018 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
