Vintages New Release Collection – October 11, 2025

LORNANO CHIANTI CLASSICO 2020 DOCG Made from 100% Sangiovese, this wine spent 12 months maturing in French oak. It’s smooth and velvety, with deep, dark fruit and good intensity and vibrancy. Blackberry, blackcurrant and cherry all reveal themselves, along with a lovely vanilla oak note. [Luca Maroni tasting note not available.] Score: 98 (lucamaroni.com, July 3, 2023) Medium-bodied & Fruity 211599 (XD) 750 ml $22.95 2 Featured as our Wine of the Month TENUTA DI GRACCIANO DELLA SETA VINO NOBILE DI MONTEPULCIANO 2021 DOCG The 2021 expresses the conditions of the vintage with an overall density but remains balanced and agile. In-house enologist, Giuseppe Rigoli explains that a small portion of the grapes were harvested very early for freshness and the remainder brought in by the end of September. He also carried out a slightly shorter maceration of 15 days (compared to 20 in 2020). The wine emerges with hints of vanilla then progresses to mint and violet. Sandy-textured tannins hem in concentrated red berries and grip assertively on the finish. The pristine quality of the fruit shines through and saline nuances persist. Drinking window: 2025-2035. Score: 93 (Michaela Morris, decanter.com, April 28, 2024) Medium-bodied & Fruity 487074 (XD) 750 ml $33.95 2
