In a few words ...
The 2017 Chianti Classico Riserva Castello di Volpaia is an extremely rewarding and inviting wine. Juicy and racy, the Riserva captures the appeal of this hot, dry year. After vinification, the wine is aged in oak barrels (French and Slovenian) for 24 months, followed by a 3-month rest in bottle to allow it to complexify.
Tasting notes
Appearance

Taste
There's a lot to like about this vintage, starting with its depth and volume. It's a well-structured wine with supple tannins and a very long finish.
