Chianti Classico San Giusto a Rentennano 2016 is a refined red wine from Tuscany, crafted predominantly from Sangiovese, complemented by Canaiolo. This estate, founded in 1970 and known for organic practices, rests at high altitude, which enhances acidity and fruit expression in the grapes. The 2016 vintage undergoes a traditional ageing process in large oak botti for about 12 months, lending complexity while maintaining varietal purity. The wine reveals aromas of cherry, plum and subtle earthy notes.

San Giusto a Rentennano's 2016 Chianti Classico pulses with energy and vibrancy from the very first taste. Lifted aromatics and silky tannins add to an impression of total finesse. Hints of rose petal, lavender, mint and sage add nuance, but it is the wine's balance that is most impressive. The purity of the flavors and textures is just stunning. Once again, San Giusto offers one of the very best Chianti Classicos out there, a wine that has the potential to elevate the reputation of an entire region with regards to what is possible in terms of quality.Antonio Galloni1st February 2019
