Isole E Olena Chianti Classico 2022
The Wine
17+ Pts Walter Spelling jancisrobinson.com 'Youthful mid ruby. Peppery strawberry with savoury spice notes underneath. Tangy cherry fruit of real bite and sandpapery tannins all beautifully balanced. Just a tiny bit of heat on the finish, but that won’t spoil the fun Drink 2025-2032.'
16.5++ Pts Jancis Robinson jancisrobinson.com '90% Sangiovese with 10% Canaiolo for freshness. No whole bunch 'but maybe in the future'. Aged 12 months in large (20- to 27-hl) casks, half Austrian, half French.Mid garnet and high toned. Fairly light, the sort of wine that grows on you. 2023 was the new winemaker's first complete vintage but he loves this wine's freshness, though had to be very selective after the hot summer Drink 2026-2032.'
