In 2018, Castello dei Rampolla again delivers a magnificent Chianti Classico, narrowly comparable to the 2015. This will be another delicious wine from Castello dei Rampolla and certainly one of the finest Chianti of the moment, that much is certain!
Wine Advocate (Monica Larner): “The Castello dei Rampolla 2018 Chianti Classico shows some softness and extra ripeness with dark fruit and plum followed by savory smoke and spice. This wine is an expression of the one and only Panzano in Chianti, a promising subzone in the larger Chianti Classico appellation with panoramic views awash in soft golden light at the end of each glorious day. To the palate, the wine delivers rich, mid-weight intensity with more textured and succulent flavors to follow. This wine is just lovely, especially when tasted right out of the gate when those cherry and blackberry tones are at their brightest.” 92/100
