Natalie's Score: 91/100

Castelli del Grevepesa Clemente Vii Riserva 2018 Chianti Classico is great value at $23. Big, bold and juicy, this Sangiovese-driven red wine from the Tuscany wine region is bright with sour cherry, red currant, raspberry, stony mineral and mochanilla flavours creamy and long on the palate. Nicely balanced. Drink or cellar to 2028.

Chianti Classico food pairings: stuffed roasted turkey, steak topped pizza, pasta in tomato sauce, breaded veal cutlets.

Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Great value Chianti with loads of flavour. Aromas of sour cherry and strawberry with hints of mocha, cedar and dark spices. Medium bodied with some soft, drying tannins and bright, mouthwatering acidity. Fruit notes are tart and bright on the palate with a spicy, earthy finish. Enjoy with spicy meat pizza.
Castelli del Grevepesa Clemente Vii Riserva 2018 Chianti Classico is produced from sustainably grown Sangiovese wine grapes from the Tuscany wine region and is great value at $23. Big, bold and juicy, with loads of sour cherry, red berry, vanilla, stoney-mineral flavours creamy on the palate, drink or hold to 2028. - Community Wine Reviews
