Fontodi, Chianti Classico (Tuscany, Italy) 2010 ($35, Vinifera Imports): Combine a top vintage, 2010 in Tuscany, and a top Chianti Classico producer, Fontodi,and you get, not surprisingly, a top wine. There is plenty of deep red, almost black fruit flavors here and enough earthy spice and acidity to remind you this is stillChianti Classico -- a very complex one at that. Not an aperitivo type wine, it pairs well with a hearty pasta dish.93 Michael Apstein Feb 25, 2014

Castello di Monsanto, Chianti Classico Riserva (Tuscany, Italy) “Il Poggio” 2009 ($55, MW Imports): Il Poggio, a 13-acre single-vineyard that sits about1,000 feet above sea level, is the source of Monsanto’s flagship wine. The 2009, from a ripe vintage, is positively explosive with a captivating smoky and mineralyquality. Racy acidity balances the ripeness so there’s no mistaking it for anything but great Chianti Classico. Monsanto’s Il Poggio has a track record of evolvingbeautifully over a decade and more with bottle age so I’d put this one in the cellar instead of on the dining table.94 Michael Apstein Feb 25, 2014

Castello di Monsanto, Chianti Classico Riserva (Tuscany, Italy) 2010 ($25, MW Imports): Monsanto, a Tuscan producer that consistently turns out stellarwines, eschews the use of “international” varieties in their Chianti Classico. Monsanto’s 2010 Chianti Classico Riserva, a traditional blend of Sangiovese, Canaioloand Colorino, delivers a wonderful combination of cherry-like fruitiness and spicy earthiness. Its Tuscan roots are evident in its vibrant acidity. Very long andelegant, it’s a good example of why Chianti Classico is such a popular category. Firmly framed, rather than soft and fleshy, it’s a fine choice for current drinkingwith hearty pasta dishes or grilled beef.92 Michael Apstein Feb 25, 2014

Fontodi, IGT Colli Toscana Centrale (Italy) “Flaccianello della Pieve” 2010 ($120, Vinifera Imports): Flaccianello is the flagship wine from Fontodi, a superbproducer located in the Conca d’Oro (the golden shell) or heart of the Chianti Classico region. This pure Sangiovese beauty comes from their best grapes. Giovanni Manetti says they look for the smallest bunches, usually found on the vines at the top of their vineyards, that provide a better ratio of skin to juice. Although Flaccianello currently could be labeled as a Chianti Classico, when Fontodi first produced it in 1981, the regulations for Chianti prohibited a 100 percent-Sangiovese wine. This marvelous wine shows the beauty of Sangiovese planted in the right place by conscientious producers. It’s mineraly and deep, withunderlying black fruit flavors playing a secondary role. What’s perhaps most impressive is its silky satiny texture and its extraordinary finish. It lingers in themouth seemingly forever. The tannins are polished, not intrusive, and give appropriate structure. As glossy as it is now, I’d still prefer to put this in the cellar andlet it evolve because it is great wine that I’m sure has even more to show.97 Michael Apstein Feb 25, 2014

Wine Enthusiast Magazine / April 2014 / Mastering Sangiovese

Mastering SangioveseItaly’s winemakers have finally found the sweet spot for Chianti Classico.

BY ADAM ST RUM

Published: 02.26.2014

There once was a time when I considered Chianti Classico, the hallmark wine of Italy’s great grape Sangiovese, to be the wild child

of Italian reds. Rambunctious, rough around the edges and, frankly, sometimes schizophrenic, it was often hard to know what you

were going to get in the glass. It was affordable, to be sure, but not always reliable.

Fast-forward to today: Chianti Classico has grown up.

Thanks to innovation, education and a better handle on how to cultivate the Sangiovese grape, the producers of Chianti Classico

have seriously upped the game of this famous red.

Whether you’re interested in a quaffable, value-driven pour with your favorite pizza, or the more elegant experience of a riserva

Chianti Classico Introduces New Top Level

Gran Selezione Now Official

What could be better than a Chianti Classico Riserva? The answer

is now clear: Chianti Classico Gran Selezione. Gran Selezione is a

new premium category for the wines of Chianti Classico DOCG

that has finally made its way through the bureaucracy of European

wine regulation to gain official status nearly a year after it was first

announced. These wines are expected to make up less than 10 percent of Chianti

Classico’s total production, although that could still mean as much as 250,000 cases

of Gran Selezione.

The primary differences between Gran Selezione and Riserva wines in Chianti

Classico are a half percent more alcohol (13 percent minimum for GS) and six

months more aging before release (30 months, compared to 24 months for Riserva).

Importantly, Gran Selezione can be made only with fruit from a winery’s own
