97 Points, James Suckling
Very perfumed with flowers and sandalwood. Medium- to full-bodied with very fine tannins that are so long and intense. This will compete with top Brunellos. Linear and driven at the end.
97 Points, James Suckling
This sleek, drop-dead gorgeous Sangiovese earned a staggering 97 points – not just the highest rating of 2020, but the second-highest score ever given to a Chianti Riserva by James Suckling. We’re talking about a wine that outscored bottles selling for four to five times its price competing with bottles 10x the price. Let that sink in.

Castello di Bossi’s “Berardo” CC Riserva is a 97-point supernova. The 2020 vintage in Tuscany was very strong – with a 94-point rating from Wine Spectator for wines they described as “fleshy, fruit-filled reds.”
James Suckling had the most expansive coverage of Chianti in 2020, tasting nearly 200 different CC Riservas alone! He went all-in on the vintage, bestowing 93 points or more to over 40 wines with 16 wines scoring 94 points or higher.
But Castello di Bossi and their Berardo Chianti Classico outpaced everybody and it wasn’t even close! This sleek, drop-dead gorgeous bottling earned 97 points, two points more than bottles four and five times their price and the 2nd highest score EVER given to a Chianti Riserva!
Bursting with vibrant notes of stone fruit, ripe berry, and citrus zest, perfectly balanced by a rich, cocoa-forward finish. Add it to your cart and it’s free with any order of $250+ !
