This savory, full-bodied red opens with inviting scents of new leather, wild berries, truffle and blue flowers. Polished and delicious, the juicy palate doles out raspberry compote, mature Marasca cherry, baking spice and mocha. Fine-grained, enveloping tannins provide seamless support. Drink through 2027.

The 2017 Chianti Classico Riserva Cultus is a racy, exotic wine. Sweet floral overtones, ripe red berry fruit, kirsch and sweet spice give the Cultus its decidedly extroverted personality. Silky and aromatically intense, the 2017 has a lot going on. The ripeness of the year is evident, and yet all the elements come together nicely.

A smooth, accessible red, boasting cherry, red plum, almond and tobacco flavors. Firms up nicely on the finish, with iron and tea accents. Drink now through 2030.
