Reviewed August 2025

Aromas of vivid raspberries with a floral undertone and an austere hint of slate. The palate is composed and balanced, combining generous red fruit with vibrant acidity. Well crafted and precise. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. (JGA)

The nose is sanguine, spicy, savory and very peppery, with tangy sweet and sour cherries and bitter citrus providing a bolt of freshness. Raspberries and oranges lead the way on the palate, before a finish of cool mint and herbs, while textured tannins keep lively acid in check. (DC)

Notes

The 2022 Castello La Leccia Chianti Classico (DOCG) represents a spectacular stylistic jump into the heart of Tuscany, delivering a masterclass in how organic viticulture and high-altitude Castellina in Chianti terroirs can yield an intensely chiseled, high-toned Sangiovese. Sourced entirely from estate vineyards perched between 300 and 500 meters above sea level, this 100% Sangiovese thrives on a complex, rock-strewn matrix of Alberese (compact limestone) and Galestro (schistose clay). In the warm 2022 vintage, these elevated, wind-swept hills preserved a brilliant, chiseled acid profile that balances the grape's natural warmth.
