Galloni "In A Word: Monumental"
The Highlight of Friday's Vinous Chianti Report! Yesterday, Antonio Galloni published is long anticipated Chianti 2018 & 2017 report. The report is full of great wines and surprises. Antonio points out that 2017 is not a vintage to write off and top estates like Fontodi, Montevertine, and Isole e Olena have produced exceptional wines. The report also dives deep into the late release 2016s and revisits a few wines previously reviewed. Click the link to view all the wines of the report sorted by score and you will immediately see that the #3 wine on that list is the just released I Sodi di S. Niccolo from Castellare with a magnificent 98 point review! "Castellare's I Sodi di San Niccolò is the single most overlooked high-end wine in Tuscany today." - Antonio Galloni In fact this is the second vintage in a row of I Sodi that Antonio has rated 98 points - yet this wine is still relatively unknown. That won't last long for anyone who takes the time to read Antonio's review and report. "This year’s wines are tremendous. ...the 2016 I Sodi di San Niccolò is truly epic. In addition to being truly magnificent, the 2016 Sodi offers unreal value in the world of high-end, cellarworthy wine. Don’t miss it." - Antonio Galloni We quickly secured a shipment of the 2016 I Sodi that is scheduled to arrive on Monday. This is the vintage that will finally break this powerhouse Sangiovese and Malvasia Nera blend into the mainstream of Tuscan collectors. One of the most unique wines produced in Tuscany today, the I Sodi has the proven track record to last decades, while retaining its complexity and structure. Cheers, |
