Garnering 95 points from James Suckling and Raffaele Vecchione, this Chianti Classico Riserva is celebrated for its sophisticated structure, rich flavor profile, and impressive aging potential.
This wine showcases an intriguing nose with notes of anise, red and black plums, cured meat, and sage. On the palate, it reveals incredible depth with dark plummy fruits, leather, and spice, balanced by salivating tannins and a long, refined finish.
Crafted from grapes grown in the high-altitude vineyards of Gaiole in Chianti, this Riserva benefits from lower crop levels and extended oak aging. With its robust tannin structure and full-bodied character, it is perfect for cellaring and will evolve beautifully over the next 8-10 years.

Description
Tenuta Perano's Chianti Classico Riserva2020 has an intense and brilliant ruby red color. The olfactory tasting is very satisfying, complex and rich is acornerstone of the terroir: floral notes of violet violet are particularly sharp followed by more floral of damask rose, then fruitiness with blackberry and blueberry in the forefront, flanked gradually by other hints of red and black fruits. Mineral, spicy with clear hints of cardamom and rhubarb root, then more leather and tobacco. Austere and at the same time affable. The palate is dry, savory, with afirm and precise tannic texture, generous body that partly mitigates its characteristic freshness. Both the taste-olfactory response and the long PAI are remarkable.
