LE CINCIOLE PETRESCO 2019

Style: Savoury & Detailed

This small organically run Tuscan estate sits just outside Panzano in the heart of Chianti. With prized vineyards on the sunblessed cru of 'Conca d'Oro,' the rollings heights of the region provide cooling nights and respite, injecting freshness and fineness into the wines. The wines are expressive and captivating with a chewy line of Tuscan tannins. They're fresh and tight in their youth and also age beautifully, the tannins will elongate and tertiary notes will appear.

The 2019 Petresco picks up where the 2018 left off, although it is perhaps a bit more reserved at this stage than its older sibling was. Deceptive in its mid-weight structure, the 2019 possesses notable depth and intensity. Time in the glass brings out shades of red/purplish Sangiovese fruit mixed with suggestions of new leather, spice and menthol. The 2019 spent two years in wood (equal parts cask and barrique) followed by a year in cement. (97) ANTONIO GALLONI
