Nice radda Chianti riserva but at this point at least not worth the $45+ price point over things like Istine or Tenuta Carleone at ~half the price or Boncie il Cinque at about the same price. Maybe in several years if it evens out? Gave it 3+ hours of air. Really a wonderful nose but the fruit doesn’t express that well and the tannins are a bit muddled. Nice refreshing acid on the finish though. — 3 months ago

Solid 2021 Chianti from Radda. Decanted an hour and gave a slight chill which helped. Excellent with kinderhook pork chops with tutto porchetta seasoning. Great acid and finish. — 4 months ago

Loved this the first day. It dropped off the second day. On first day, it was very youthful in expression, and full bodied. I loved it. — 9 months ago

Believe it or not, in the early 1970’s there were less than a handful productive wineries in the Radda UGA; Castello di Volpaia was one of those. Radda was simply remote and difficult to get to. However, times have changed and today, there are more than 40 active wineries! Volpaia is somewhat unique in that its vineyards are some of the highest elevation in the entire Chianti Classico zone.

Popped and poured, the 2021 “Chianti Classico” pours a light ruby color with a transparent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with light notes of cherry, orange pith, dried green herbs and earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium. If Radda has a reputation for more elegant wines, then Volpaia is a leading example. While it’s more “reserved” than many others, there is substance and has a story to be shared. Drink now with some patience but I think this will be even more enjoyable in the next 5-10 years. — 2 years ago

Fantastic with homemade wood fired pizza ….layers of complexity and most importantly, opening an open Tuesday wine on a Tuesday! #opentuesdaywines — 3 months ago

Thoroughly enjoyable. Great dark red and purple fruit. Nice expressive nose. Seamless and full while still retaining some lightness. Excellent lifting acid on the finish. 100% Sangiovese. Very nice. — 9 months ago
