Podere Il Palazzino Grosso Sanese Gran Selezione Chianti Classico 2016

Il Palazzino’s Chianti Classico Grosso Sanese is often one of the great wines of Chianti Classico, as it is once again in 2016. Dark, somber and explosive, the 2016 possesses off the charts intensity to match its brooding personality. Black cherry, scorched earth, tobacco, licorice and incense hit the palate. Deep and layered in the glass, the 2016 is superimpressive. What a wine! Drinking window: 2022-2031. Score – 96. (Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, July 2022)
