James Suckling Review
Rated 96
Wow. This shows a beautiful shift in character towards freshness and brightness, with lots of dried flowers and hints of sandalwood. Medium to full body with firm, fine tannins. Energetic finish. Lots of fresh herbs and pine to the fruit at the end. Pure sangiovese. Give this a couple of years, but already top-quality Chianti Classico. Best ever?
Wine Tasting Notes
Intensely ruby red in color with purple highlights, this wine shows notes of cherry, strawberry and ripe raspberries as well as spice notes from the oak barrels. On the palate, the wine is soft with supple tannins. Savory and vibrant, the wine has a long and lingering finish. Badia is an exceptional expression of the Sangiovese grape in this part of the Chianti Classico appellation.
