2019 Antinori Badia a Passignano Chianti Classico Gran Selezione


What a stunning deal on a Tuscan!
2019 Antinori Badia a Passignano Chianti Classico Gran Selezione...$52.99
A dense, rich red highlighted by black cherry, blackberry and blueberry flavors, with flashes of vanilla and toasty oak underscored by mineral and wild herbs. Shows fine balance and texture, with a tannic structure emerging on the earth-tinged finish, suggesting this will need another two to three years before hitting its stride. One for the cellar. Best from 2025 through 2043.
Rated 95/100 The Wine Spectator
