This wine from the single vineyard of the same name is probably the most opulent of the house's selection line. On the nose, an almost brushstroke-wide presence of ripe fruit, spices and hints of crushed rock. On the palate, impressive suppleness, complexity and richness, plus a whole bouquet of dark fruit flavours flanked by firm, structured tannin. The Merlot content gives it additional depth and power.

"The wine is dark and concentrated in this vintage with beautiful tones of ripe blackberry, baked plum, sweet earth and black rose. It has all the classic flavours of the varietal, except in this case they are delivered with more power and vigour thanks to the warm and sunny growing season. This vintage remains a little more approachable overall." Wine Advocate
"Dark, noble ruby red with a discreetly lightening rim. In the nose black bread crust, butter biscuits, delicate vanilla note, then rich dark berry fruit, noble wood. On the palate punchy, very juicy, seems cool fruity, with tight tannin, deep, long, in the final again juicy and fresh." Falstaff
"Aromas of plums, blackberries and earth show hints of caramel in this soft, muscular red wine framed by toasted oak. It feels fluid and open until the dense, powerful tannins make their presence felt on the finish. Persistent and fresh, with a long aftertaste." Wine Spectator
"It is beautiful and decadent with notes of ripe red and dark berries with sweet spices, bark and hints of dried leaves. Full-bodied and dense with finely polished and compact tannins that extend throughout the length of the wine. Long and firm with a granite-like presence on the finish." James Suckling
"The 2020 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto La Casuccia is normally a sensual wine, but it is a powerhouse. That's probably a good thing for its long-term ageing prospects, but harvestwill have to be patient. Intense spicy and mineral notes give the 2020 an enormous complexity. Even in this warm year, the 2020 is not opulent, but it is packed with tremendous intensity and pure power. The reddish fruit of the Sangiovese will emerge with time, but the 2020 will require a certain amount of patience." Vinous
