Villa Saletta - Chianti Superiore 2017
92/100
James Suckling
"A Chianti Superiore with incredible smoothness and richness, a delicious new addition to enjoy now or keep for later!"
"A lot of richness for a Chianti Superiore, highlighting the warmth of the season and the growth of the vintage. A medium-bodied to full-bodied wine with moderately chewy tannins and a tart finish. Notes of new wood on the finish. Drink now or hold." (James Suckling)
