Lot #1112. Fèlsina Berardenga Chianti Classico Riserva Rancia 2016

Description: Consists of 1 Double Magnum, 3L
Score: 96+ AG.
"The 2016 Chianti Classico Riserva Rancia is powerful, rich and explosive, with tremendous drive. Even so, several bottles have been quite closed. That is probably a very good sign for the long-term, but readers should not plan on touching a bottle anytime soon. A wine of vertical drive and aromatic nuance, the 2016 Rancia is super-complexed. Only with a few hours of air does it show the nuances and layers that were so evident from barrel. The 2016 is a painfully stubborn wine in the early going, but it will offer superb drinking pleasure for those who can wait." Vinous, Aug 2019
Provenance: The Embrayage Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $350
