2017 FONTODI CHIANTI CLASSICO VIGNA DEL SORBO GRAN SELEZIONE (3 LITER)

2017 FONTODI CHIANTI CLASSICO VIGNA DEL SORBO GRAN SELEZIONE (3 LITER) image
(96 points) The 2017 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo is a dense, packed wine. It is also surprisingly, almost shockingly backward. That is probably a good thing for its long-term aging prospects. Readers hoping to get an early glimpse into the 2017 before it shuts down may have a hard time doing that, as today acids and tannin dominate. Proprietor Giovanni Manetti gave the 2017 18 months in barrique followed by 6 months in cask. (AG) 96+ Inner quote mark (9/2020). -Vinous.
