The Casanova dell'Aia vineyard is close to the village of Radda itself and was planted entirely to Sangiovese. The wines have a bright mid-red color, and mouthwatering, inviting aromas of sour-cherry, marzipan and thyme. Superb palate impression, complex, delicious, and very long. Just an outstanding wine.

The 2021 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna Casanova dell'Aia is a picture-perfect example of Radda. Sage, mint, white pepper, crushed rocks, mint and dried herbs give the 2021 its intensely floral/savory/mineral style. Readers will find a Gran Selezione endowed with tons of tension and pure mineral drive. This has really come along since I tasted it last year.
