Mazzei Ser Lapo Riserva Chianti Classico 2021

Description

A solid, well-shaped, focused and vibrant riserva with aromas of wild currants, Morello cherries, warm herbs and baking spices. It’s medium-bodied with fine, firm tannins, yet it has so much intensity and drive. Structured and balanced, with great energy at the center. Succulent and agile, with a lively core of juicy forest berries mingling with the dried herbs and funneling toward the focused, medium finish. Try from 2026. Score – 94.
