San Giusto a Rentennano, Chianti Classico Riserva Le Baroncole 2022

The organic San Giusto a Rentennano 2022 Chianti Classico Riserva Le Baròncole is 97% Sangiovese with a 3% dab of Canaiolo added for softness. This wine shines with brightness and pretty intensity. The bouquet reveals red and purple fruits, tart plum and cherry. It offers nice complexity from a warm vintage, with a velvety texture and excellent length. The wine ages in oak for 20 months. Much of that complexity comes thanks to a mix of soils including galestro shale, alberese limestone and tuffaceous elements that enhance aromas in the fruit. This is a release of 16,684 bottles.
