Chianti Classico

After losing half his crop to downy mildew in 2023, Jurij Fiore decided to forgo his single-vineyard bottlings, instead opting to craft a sum of his best plots in Lamole. Dubbed ‘Tuttosommato’, meaning ‘all things considered’, it is a positive take on a decidedly challenging year. With some dusty oak top notes, it needs coaxing to reveal a discreet yet fascinating mix of tobacco, blood, graphite and raspberry. Concentrated yet agile, the palate is awash with grilled herbs, incense and wild yellow broom. Tangy, cheek-puckering acidity collides with compact wood tannins. This could do with a bit more time to sort itself out, but a frisky finish of pepper and minerals is promising.
