94pts Wine Spectator
A pretty red, this boasts cherry, strawberry, rose, mineral and wild herb aromas and flavors. Straddles the fence between elegant and powerful, with the firm structure and vibrant acidity keeping this focused and long. Sangiovese and Merlot. Best from 2025 through 2045.
94pts James Suckling
This has a darker character with toasted spices and walnuts with ripe dark cherries and currants on offer. Medium- to full-bodied and firm with linear tannins and steady acidity. Focused and structured with a long, straight finish. A little chewy at the end. From organically grown grapes.
93pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva is a smooth and supple wine with plenty of dark fruit, cherry and toasted spice that reflects a warm growing season. All of these organic wines from Brancaia are impeccably put together and show no hard edges thanks to careful fruit maturity and oak aging. This Riserva has sweet tannins over a mid-weight finish.
92pts Wine Enthusiast
Cherries, wet stones, graphite and balsamic vinegar on the nose with just a hint of soil and wild herbs lead onto a palate that's more stony and red cherry, finished with a fresh, herbal burst of mint and fennel.

Winemaker Notes
Brancaia Chianti Classico Riserva is an intense, medium to full-bodied wine. Long bouquet of cherry, black fruit and a continuum of spice, leather, tar and tilled earth. The mouthfeel is equal parts structured, fresh and succulent.
A great match with grilled meat, roast or braised beef and veal, stewed dishes, grilled fish and pasta dishes with strong tasting sauces.
