I Fabbri, Chianti Classico (Tuscany, Italy) 2020

Mar 5, 2024

By Michael Apstein

 The wines from the higher, and therefore cooler, elevations, like Lamole, turned out especially well in 2020, another year with a hot and dry growing season.  Lamole’s cooler climate imbued the wines, such as I Fabbri’s, with a firmness and freshness that balances the dark cherry-like nuances.  I Fabbri’s minerally 2020 has a seemingly endless finish highlighted with a nuance of engaging bitterness.  A delight to drink now, it will evolve beautifully over the next decade.
