"Sean O’Callaghan is a passionate, obsessed and intensely faithful producer of Sangiovese. He sees the same potential in it as in Nebbiolo or Pinot Noir, and this Chianti Classico is as exquisite as the top wines made from those other noble grapes. Intriguing perfume, both elegant and spicy. The flavours, though pure and brilliant, are somewhat overshadowed by the structure and texture. It is so seamless, with such expert tailoring that it glides, soars even, over the palate. Very fine."
