James Suckling Review
Rated 95
Complex nose of earthy berries, blood oranges and dried plums with hints of tar, black tea and new leather. A juicy and linear Chianti Classico Gran Selezione, despite the structured, full-bodied palate. Tight, very integrated and complete with a savory yet fresh and mineral finish. Delicious to drink now, but will hold well.

Wine Advocate Review
Rated 94
The organic 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Capannino is a second careful single-vineyard selection from this leading estate based in Castellina in Chianti. I love the broad intensity of this wine and all the velvety cherry, blackberry and plum it awards. There is a pleasing, almost decadent quality to this wine, yet it remains elegant and within the more constrained framework of Sangiovese. That means it shows good depth and freshness too. Drink 2022-2032.

Wine Spectator Review
Rated 93
A solidly built red, featuring cherry and kirsch flavors framed by earth, thyme and mineral notes. Taut and intense, building to a long fruity and black pepper-flecked aftertaste. Combines finesse and energy. Best from 2024 through 2038.

Wine Tasting Notes
Bibbiano Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Capannino DOCG shows intense ruby red, with purple reflections. On the nose there is black cherry, plum, balsamic sweet spices, cinnamon and cloves. Strong flavor wrapped in elegant softness on the finish.
