KERIN O'KEEFE 94 POINTS - "The 2022 Le Vigne Riserva is a fragrant, generous wine that boasts alluring aromas of ripe red cherry, violet, perfumed face powder and cake spice that mingle with Mediterranean brush and a whiff of sun-warmed beach sand. Smooth and juicy, the delicious palate delivers ripe black cherry, licorice, bitter orange and an almond note alongside surprisingly fresh acidity for the dry, scorching vintage. Drink through 2030.

"The 2022 Chianti Classico Riserva Le Vigne is a classy, elegant wine. Dark red-toned fruit, leather, cedar, menthol, licorice and dried herbs are some of the many notes that open in the glass. Time and air bring out the wine's natural breadth and textural resonance. The Riserva is a blend of lots from Vigna Istine, Casanova dell'Aia and Cavarchione that spends an added nine months in cask relative to the Gran Seleziones. Some fruit of the fruit from Cavarchione is done with whole clusters. This dynamic, complex Riserva has a ton to offer." - Antonio Galloni, VINOUS MEDIA
