Borgo Scopeto Gran Selezione Chianti Classico 2016

This is ripe and intense with exotic dark fruit, chocolate and highly toasted oak, but in a really exciting way. It’s full-bodied, round-textured and rich and flavorful at the finish. Brunello challenger here. Drink in 2021 and onwards. [This has the potential to see the end of the decade.] Score – 94. (jamessuckling.com, Oct. 27, 2020)
