92 AG. "The 2015 Chianti Classico Ca' di Pesa is a wine of real pedigree and class. Wonderfully deep and generous, it also retains striking translucence. Sweet red cherry, spice, mint, leather, tobacco and pomegranate overtones give the wine much of its sensual, inviting personality . . . . The purity of the fruit here is striking. L'Orcio, a tiny estate in Panzano's Conca d'Oro, continues to make some of the most compelling Chianti Classicos. The wines are rich and sumptuous - as the bottlings from this sector tend to be - and yet they also possess remarkable purity." Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com, Jul 2017 |
