Brancaia is a charming wine estate nestled in the thick forests of Radda in Chianti with wild boar and roe deer. The organic 2022 Chianti Classico Riserva shows a savory side and lot of blackberry. The Riserva is shaped by a warm vintage, but the wine also reveals more oak detailing with nutmeg and sweet cinnamon. The wine shows extra textural weight and concentration in this vintage. This is a release of 45,000 bottles.
The 2022 Chianti Classico Riserva is terrific. Dark and enveloping, the 2022 offers great depth in a fairly plush style that can be enjoyed with minimal cellaring. Succulent dark cherry, plum, new leather, liquorice and incense are nicely turned up. The 2022 is all charm.
