The Wine Killer Review
Rated 100
A 'blessed' blend of Sangiovese and Merlot, nose with notes of red currant, rhubarb and licorice, with a finish of mint. The mouthfeel is juicy, dense and crisp, rich in salty-savory tannins and very long persistence. Return of red berries and rhubarb sensations on the finish.

Wine Tasting Notes
The vintage has produced Volpaia wines that are a bright color and have a good acidity level without an excessive alcohol content. Compared to previous years they seem less concentrated but are more elegant. The Castello di Volpaia Chianti Classico DOCG has a vivid ruby color and a strong nose of fresh red fruit with hints of cherry. This is a well-structured wine with a fruity finish.
Blend: 90% Sangiovese, 10% Merlot
Alcohol: 13.5%
