Melini Vigneti La Selvanella Riserva Chianti Classico DOCG 2019 Review
This is a single-vineyard expression of Sangiovese from the 123 acre La Selvanella vineyard in Chianti's high-quality Radda region. The nose has hints of bright cherries, rhubarb, and herbs. The palate offers a great depth of fruit supported by grippy tannins. Exactly what you would expect from the terroir-driven region of Radda.
