Arillo in Terrabianca Chianti Classico Riserva “Poggio Croce” DOCG 2020 Vinous 11/07/2024 92
Verbiage

“The 2020 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna Terrabianca is another terrific wine in this range from Arillo in Terrabianca. Black cherry, dried herbs, tobacco, incense, licorice and mocha are beautifully amplified in this resonant, super-expressive Gran Selezione. All the elements are very nicely balanced.” -Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jul. 2024
