Item#: 96082

SP9292 pts. - Wine Spectator - Mar 31, 2020
This is beginning to close up, with cherry, plum and floral aromas and flavors struggling against the tannic structure. Nevertheless, this offers plenty of sweet, ripe fruit, remaining vibrant and long. Sangiovese and Canaiolo. Best from 2021 through 2033. 1,700 cases made, 1,250 cases imported.

A touch of reduction characterizes overtones of red plums, crushed stones and citrus on a quite subtle nose. Medium-bodied and finely textured, this is a steely Chianti Classico driven along by plenty of herbal undertones. Drink now.

The 2016 Chianti Classico Le Masse di Greve is a lean, mid-weight expression that opens to a pretty ruby and garnet color. The bouquet is buoyant and bright with forest berry, wild cherry, tilled earth and blue flowers. This is an authentic and traditional wine (made with 95% Sangiovese and 5% Colorino) that plays its cards close to its chest. It never goes overboard but instead offers a correct, easy and fresh-drinking experience. This Chianti Classico has the versatility to pair with chicken, red meat or pasta. There is a point of sour fruit on the close. Some 30,000 bottles were made.

Violet, black-skinned fruit and underbrush aromas shape the nose. The juicy palate shows dried black cherry, clove and white pepper alongside smooth tannins Drink through 2024.

Where It's From

Region / Tuscany

View more wines from Tuscany

There are few regions as picturesque as Italy's Tuscany. And there are few regions that produce finer wines, either. Tuscany is home to legendary wine regions Brunello di Montalcino and Chianti, among others, where the red wine grape Sangiovese is king. It's also home to "Super Tuscans," a category of Tuscan wines that don't officially fall within the Italian wine classification system.

Country / Italy

View more wines from Italy

Italy is famous for its powerful, sleek, and elegant reds wines from ancient growing areas with legendary names such as Chianti, Barolo, Barbaresco, Montepulciano. Italian white wines are also gaining popularity: Orvieto, Pinot Grigio, and Sauvignon are excellent examples of Italian white wines.

Wines of Italy are complex and flavorful, much like the culture that is their source and the cuisine that is their match.
