A garnet red color, the 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva Poggio Croce offers a pretty bouquet of fresh roses, tarragon, red raspberry, and orange peel. Zesty and inviting, this medium-bodied red has lovely, fresh energy with a weightless feel, ultra-fine tannins, and clean lift on an impressively long and mouthwatering saline finish. It’s a beautiful and bright style to drink over the next 10-12 years.
