The organic San Giusto a Rentennano 2019 Chianti Classico is another excellent buy
from a tight group of iconic Tuscan wine estates. This vintage, made with 95%
Sangiovese and 5% Canaiolo, is pure and tonic in character. There are clearly etched
aromas of blueberry, wild cherry, limestone and crushed stone. These are essential
aromas to any traditional expression of Chianti Classico, and this wine delivers
them with terrific simplicity and balance. Fruit is sourced from across a 30-hectare
vineyard with south-facing exposures. Some 46,560 bottles were made.
