"What an absolute delight!"
2020 Castell'in Villa Chianti Classico

"What an absolute delight!" -Antonio Galloni

Castell'in Villa is one of the great, traditional, and honest examples of Sangiovese.

Castell'in Villa's style is one of harmony and exacting precision. The wines flaunt a magical combination of verve, terroir-soaked purity, and subtle complexity. For me, the total package is amazing.

It's clear that I'm not alone. I’ve recommended this wine to several serious collectors, and they always come back for more. The last time we offered the wine, we witnessed hundreds of bottles sold in a couple of hours.

You’ll have a hard time finding another wine with as much soul, complexity, and ageability for $28.95. 

The 2020 vintage is a riper and more powerful one. For Castell'in Villa, the vintage allowed them to produce a wine of amazing grace and refinement along with plenty of immediate textural appeal. It's incredibly multifaceted, with layers of black cherry fruit, florals, savory herbs, spices, minerals, and smoke. There's a dancing finesse to it.

Castell'in Villa is one of the most historic, time-tested estates in the region. Their style of harmony and precision allows the wines to age incredibly well while remaining ultra-finessed and agile. While the 2020 is drinking beautifully right now, there's an impressive future for the wine.
