2018 Fontodi Chianti Classico Riserva Vigna Del Sorbo Gran Selezione

2018 Fontodi Chianti Classico Riserva Vigna Del Sorbo Gran Selezione image

(98 points) 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. (AG) Inner quote mark (11/2021). -Vinous.
