Vinous, 94 Points 

"The 2021 Chianti Classico is one of the wines of the vintage in the Chianti Classico 'Annata' category. Rich, layered and super-expressive, the 2021 offers up red/purplish berry fruit, rose petal, lavender and spice race across the palate. The Montesecondo Chianti Classico raises the simple question of why there aren't more wines like this." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Montesecondo is the name of the estate and the original family vineyard which is located in heavier clay soils at a lower altitude in the town of Cerbaia. The grapes were hand-harvested and mostly destemmed however 30% whole cluster fruit was added to the tank before pressing and put into concrete tanks. Fermented spontaneously. Biodynamic." 

Alcohol: 13.5%
