"The 2016 Chianti Classico impresses for the heightened level of vibrant freshness and aromatic precision that distinguishes it in a large playing field. Proprietor Maurizia di Napoli tells me that the 2016 growing season was not without its ups and downs.

Farming was difficult, and not all sites came to ripeness with the same consistency because it was cooler toward the end of the growing season. Castello dei Rampolla avoids using the use of sulphites in winemaking. However, these results are stunning, especially as this is postitioned as a more affordable wine. The blend is 85% Sangiovese 12% Cabernet sauvignon and 3% Merlot."~ML
