Ricasoli Brolio Bettino Chianti Classico 2021

There’s a beautiful expression of fruit in this well-defined red, revealing cherry, pomegranate, earth and iron notes, with a hint of Tuscan scrub. Verges on rich yet is underscored by vibrant acidity and refined tannins. Shows terrific balance and length. Best from 2026 through 2043. Score – 93.
