If you’ve heard of Castello di Bossi, you probably have winemaker and entrepreneur Marco Bacci to thank. Since taking over the winery in 1998, the man behind Renieri and several other wineries throughout Tuscany, has pumped new life into the winery – thrusting it firmly into the Tuscan spotlight.
The property – a breathtaking estate in the heart of the beloved commune of Castelnuovo Berardenga is home to some of the most consistently outstanding wines throughout the lineup.. From the Chianti Classico, to the Gran Selezione, to their SuperTuscan ‘Corbaia’, these represent some of Tuscany’s finest winemaking examples.
Along with superstar consultant Alberto Antonini, the winery has matched big scores with the very best in Tuscany: Sassicaia, Ornellaia, Tignanello, you name it – which is why Monica Lerner, the Wine Advocate’s Chief Editor in Staff declared, “Castello di Bossi is a flagship producer from the Castelnuovo Berardenga sub zone in the southern part of the appellation.“
The 2019 vintage in Tuscany has been largely heralded, including by Italy’s major wine publication, The Brunello Consorzio which gave the vintage 5 stars, ranking it up there with 2010, 2015 and ’16. Vinous Media called out Chianti especially, writing “What impresses me most about the 2019s is their exceptional balance. The wines soar with aromatic intensity and show fine tannins with terrific depth, all with medium-bodied structure.”
Castello di Bossi’s 2019 Chianti Classico represents a particularly high note in a great year. Both James Suckling and the Wine Enthusiast awarded the wine 92-point scores, with the latter lobbing on a ‘Editors’ Choice’ designate and calling out the wine for its “savory, elegantly structured palate”. There really is so much to love about this wine.

Made with organically farmed Sangiovese, this medium-bodied red has aromas of forest floor, wild berries, camphor and new leather. The savory, elegantly structured palate doles out juicy black cherry, crushed raspberry and licorice as well as a cool smoky note that adds nuance
92 Points, James Suckling
Aromas of blueberries, plums, roasted meat and dried herbs. Medium-to full-bodied with firm tannins. Chewy and structured on the palate with chocolate notes on the flavorful finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

Avignonesi’s wines took Nicholas Wines by storm last year with their ‘Grifi’ SuperTuscan, a highly rated, highly delicious bottle that put the winery firmly on my radar. It’s a great bottle of wine, but at this price – it completely overdelivers which is exactly what you’re looking for.
Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!

This is a really exciting new release in the collection of single-vineyards from the Wagner Family, and arguably the most interesting one of the bunch. This is the only Pinot Noir in the Caymus collection that has the advantage of being from a natural Pinot Noir haven in the Russian River Valley. Dairyman Vineyard’s proximity to the pacific ocean, with its morning fog and afternoon coastal breezes allows for an even and elongated growing season, with super concentrated and expressive grape clusters that help make this Dijon clone Pinot Noir one that you need.

“The 2021 Malbec Reserva, from Vistalba, Lujan de Cuyo, was 60% aged in barrels for 12 months. Purple in color. The nose presents notes of fresh plum and violets, white pepper, strawberry, hints of spice and aromas from the aging process. It’s initially indulgent in the mouth, with good fat, and volume and a velvety texture. The flavors are bold and full-bodied. This 2021 overdelivers at the price.” -Vinous
