Castello di Volpaia 'Coltassala' Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2018

94 Points Wine Advocate

Here's another very interesting wine from Volpaia that has since been moved up to Grand Selezione status. The 2018 Chianti Classico Riserva Coltassala (with 9,000 bottles made) is 95% Sangiovese and 5% Mammolo. Initially, the wine puts forward an elegant and streamlined personality, but it quickly takes on volume with dark fruit layering and sweet spice. This vintage offers an especially focused or sharp personality that bodes well for its future bottle evolution.
