Score 89/100 · Drink 2014-2024, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Sep 2014

A pretty, silky wine, Volpaia's 2011 Chianti Classico is laced with red cherries, crushed flowers, tobacco and cedar. The 2011 can be enjoyed today or cellared for at least a handful of years. There is plenty of vintage 2011 raciness in the glass.

The 2011 Chianti Classico (90-10 Sangiovese and Merlot/Syrah) delivers classic lines with pretty berry nuances laced with spicy accents of forest floor, autumn leaf and dried herbs. Balanced acidity adds vigor and energy. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2020. Castello di Volpaia is one of the banner estates of the Radda in Chianti subzone of Chianti Classico in Siena province. It is managed by the Mascheroni Stianti family: Giovannella, Carlo, Nicolo and Federica. Thanks to high-elevation vineyards, Volpaia’s wines are celebrated for their freshness and finesse.
