Il Palazzino's 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Argenina is terrific. Bright, poised and articulate, the 2019 has a lot going for it. Wild cherry, tobacco, incense, licorice and dried flowers abound in this super-expressive Chianti Classico. Bright acids perk up the finish. I very much like the energy here. This is classic Sangiovese through and through.

Over the past few years, Podere il Palazzino has become our go-to producer for all things Tuscan and risen to become our top-selling Tuscan producer! Owned by the Sderci family since the mid-19th century, wine production is a newer venture, having been started in the 1970s when Alessandro and Andrea Sderci took over management of the farm. (Olive oil being the primary livelihood till then.) The style has always been traditional, but the next generation – Alessandro’s children Edoardo and Valentina, along with Andrea’s daughter Claudia – has lent modern education to enhance the overall product. Here we have a fabulous Chianti Classico from one of their smallest vineyards, 3 hectares of land in the hamlet of Argenina. Located in the Monti sub-zone of Gaiole, the wine is noted for its depth and structure.
