Note di degustazione
Poggio Scalette's 2017 Chianti Classico is forward and juicy, as so many wines are in this vintage. Sweet red cherry, tobacco, spice and leather shape this racy, pliant Chianti Classico from Poggio Scalette. The 2017 is not terribly complex, but it is quite tasty.

The Podere Poggio Scalette 2017 Chianti Classico opens to heightened intensity and extraction that is characteristic of this hot vintage. The fruit has gained in color darkness and flavor intensity thanks to the summer heat that reduced the size of the berries, thus increasing that deep, inner intensity. However, those Sangiovese-driven flavors of crunchy cherry and wild berry also come through as does the wine's fresh acidity and tannic backbone.
Thereâs lovely purity of fruit to this Chianti with dark plums, red cherries and lemon and orange zest. Medium body, fine tannins and a tangy finish. Drink now.
Greve in Chianti. 100% Sangiovese. Deep ruby. Minerally and spicy nose and still a little closed on the fruit. Pure tangy cherry with firm, but polished tannins. Finely balanced and concentrated. (WS)
