2018 BIBBIANO VIGNA DEL CAPANNINO GRAN SELEZIONE CHIANTI CLASSICO "This is really succulent with sliced plums, blackberries and some dark chocolate. It’s full-bodied and beautifully crafted. Long and flavorful with gorgeous polish. From organically grown grapes. So delicious now, but better in 2023.” 94 Points "Bibbiano’s seven-hectare Capannino vineyard is planted with Sangiovese Grosso clones from Montalcino. It enjoys a warm southwest exposure on blue clay with Alberese schist. Dusty, dark and brooding on the nose, the 2018 hints at liquorice, leather and black cherry. The palate is sweeter and friendlier, with macerated berries and cinnamon enveloped in plush, layered tannins. Easygoing yet lively acidity gives a boost...” 93 Points "Harmony and grace are the hallmarks of this red, whose cherry, currant, tobacco, iron, sanguine and underbrush flavors are nicely integrated with the firm structure. Ends on a savory note, with an undercurrent of ripe fruit. Best from 2023 through 2032." 92 Points
