I have choosen this to be my wine of the year because it is just so deliciously-drinkable. Vibrant grippy fruit, this is the kind of wine I love when the weather turns. Great with food, think roasted pork and chestnuts, but also great just as it is. Made with great care bio-dynamically in a beautiful part of Tuscany the class of this wine is evident in the glass and yet it is priced at a level one can enjoy at least once a week if not more often.

The 2009 Chianti Classico Querciabella floats on the palate with layers of sensual red fruit, flowers and spices. It remains an essentially mid-weight wine graced with exquisite finesse and class, reflecting a stylistic change from some of the bigger vintages of the past. Floral notes reappear on the finish, adding lift and harmony. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019. ANTONIO GALLONI, Wine Advocate #196 August 2011
