Expert Reviews · Vintage 2022

Antonio Galloni, Vinous · 92 Points: The 2022 Chianti Classico is fruity, supple and very easy to drink. Succulent dark red fruit, plum, leather, spice and a kick of blood orange are front and center. Medium in body and forward, with fine balance, the 2022 is full of charm. The warm vintage yielded an especially succulent Chianti Classico that is quite appealing.

Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator · 90 Points: This is rich and exudes cherry and raspberry fruit. Iron, leafy underbrush and spice accents add detail as this winds down alongside a light dusting of tannins. Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2026 through 2035. 3,000 cases made, 525 cases imported.

Winemaker Notes

Castello dei Rampolla: Bright ruby in color. The bouquet on the nose is intense, with rich cherry and red berry aromas and leafy undertones. On the palate it is silky, balanced, with medium body, refined tanning and a long flavorful finish of blackberry and chocolate. 90% Sangiovese, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot.

Tasting Notes

Bright ruby, with cherry, red berries and leafy undertones. A silky, balanced palate carries a medium-bodied fruit core, followed by blackberry and chocolate notes on the long finish.

Food Pairings

Try with tomato-based pasta, grilled beef, roast lamb or aged Pecorino. Mushroom ragù is another pairing to explore with the wine's leafy, earthy and spicy accents.
