"The 2015 Chianti Classico Riserva is rich and ample on the palate, with layers that build beautifully through the mid-palate and into the finish. Dark cherry, plum, mocha, licorice, dried flowers, sage and menthol are all lavishly rendered in a Riserva that captures the essence of the year as well as the personality of Panzano's Conca d'Oro."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
The heartland of Sangiovese, producing Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and the Cabernet-influenced 'Super Tuscans' of the coast. Its wines balance bright acidity, savory structure and cellar-worthiness.
The historic heart of the Chianti zone, producing Sangiovese-based reds of bright cherry fruit, savory herbs and firm structure.
Tuscany's signature red, giving high-acid, savory wines of sour cherry, herbs and firm tannin. It is the backbone of Chianti, Brunello and many Super Tuscans.
