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. — 7 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. — a year ago

Nice Chianti. A bit feral at first - 45 mins in the decanter and a slight chill bring things into more balance. Obviously could take more time in bottle but expressing pretty well overall even at this point. Has that great Radda lifting acid finish. Nice pairing with chicken scarpariello. — 20 days ago

Fantastic with homemade wood fired pizza ….layers of complexity and most importantly, opening an open Tuesday wine on a Tuesday! #opentuesdaywines — 7 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. — 8 months ago

The 2021 Chianti Classico, 100% Sangiovese from Radda, is sublime. Aromatic and delineated, with terrific energy, the 2021 soars out of the glass. Dark cherry fruit, lavender, spice, licorice and new leather all come alive in the glass. The 2022 spent two to three months on the skins, with about 40% whole clusters. Aging was done in a combination of vessels with the goal of building complexity in the final blend. It is an exceptional wine in every way. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, July 2024)
