2020 Tolaini 'Vallenuova' Chianti Classico Tuscany
Winemaker Notes: This is a sensual wine with notes of cherry fruit, tobacco, leather and hints of licorice and spice. The elegant tannins balance nicely with the fruit, all underlined by a fabulous stratum of acidity, making this a complex wine with incontestable structure and power. A long and satisfying finish confirms this Sangiovese is true to its terroir.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
James Suckling - "Plums, cherry stones, blackberries and bark on the nose. Medium-bodied with firm, chewy tannins. Darker-fruit character here with a firm, slightly stern finish. Better after 2023."

Jeb Dunnuck - "Expressive upon opening, the 2020 Chianti Classico Vallenuova is generous with ripe red and black berry fruits, violets, and candied licorice. It is open-knit and approachable, with medium body, ripe tannins, and juicy red cherry throughout, followed by savory tomato leaf on the finish. "
