In bumper vintages, some of the fruit from the Classico vineyards (Chianti's very best) is sold as standard Chianti in order to preserve the prestige of the most sought-after wines. Normally these ‘declassified’ wines get snapped up by local producers, but our buyer, Leonardo, has been able to secure a very special parcel of the 5-star 2018 vintage. It's from a top tier winery (their neighbours' best wines sell for £70 a bottle) in the heart of the ‘Conca d’Oro’ (the name given to the very best area of the Classico zone). The only condition? The original winery remains TOP SECRET. But we don't think you'll mind. It might say Chianti on the label, but the quality is unmistakeable: all juicy morello cherry, raspberry, black plum and spice.
