Galloni om: Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo

The 2018 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo is quite possibly the most elegant, refined version of this wine I have ever tasted. It does not offer the immediacy or impact of either the 2015 or 2016, but, instead, impresses with its elegance, persistence and total class. Bright floral and spice notes add perfume to a core of red-toned fruit. The 2018 represents another move towards greater finesse at Fontodi. It spent a year in French oak barrel and a second year in cask. 98/100

Parker om: Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo

The Fontodi 2018 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo is simply gorgeous now and we should expect better things to come as the wine continues its bottle evolution. This organic, single-vineyard expression (with 29,000 bottles made) delivers impeccable balance and beautiful intensity throughout. The wine sports a developed fruit side that contrasts nicely against the spice and tobacco-like tones that come thanks to 18 months in French barrique and six months in botte. The 2018 vintage can sometimes be hard to read. For example, this wine offers sharp acidity but it also sees a 15% alcohol content plus lots of enduring sweetness and ripeness. The tannins are especially supple and sweet. I can't wait to try this wine in 10 or 15 years from now. Vigna del Sorbo hits the market in September. 96+/100

Suckling om: Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo

Beautiful blue fruit with mahogany and violets. Full-bodied with creamy, polished tannins that show a beautiful polished and texture. So drinkable already. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. 96/100

Fontodi

Fontodi-ejendommen ligger i nærheden af Panzano i hjertet af Chianti Classico-regionen og er et af Toscanas absolutte flagskibe. Herfra kan man se ud over Conca d'Oro, "guldbassinet" syd for Panzano, dalen, hvis navn i årtier har stået for de pragtfulde sydvendte skråninger i vinmarkerne.
