Forget everything you think you know about Chianti because this 2022 Riserva is playing in a completely different league. While mass-market Chiantis are watery disappointments, Corte Medicea's DOCG Riserva brings serious Tuscan power with zero compromises.

Master winemaker Andrea Bernardini crafted this with elite-level obsession—rich, complex Sangiovese that actually has backbone and character. This is what Chianti was meant to be: bold, food-crushing, cellar-worthy wine that makes you understand why Tuscany rules.

Corte Medicea is the Tuscan project that's turning heads. This distinguished estate operates under La Bollina, a renowned Piedmontese trading company that knows serious wine. They're not chasing trends or playing it safe—they're making wines with serious character that hit different. Sitting pretty on rolling hills with perfect clay-loam soils at 380-400 meters in southern Tuscany, their vineyards are in the sweet spot where magic happens.

Their celebrated consultant Andrea Bernardini is absolutely legit. This winemaking master has experience spanning Tuscany, South Africa, Romania, and Greece—trained at big-name estates like Poggio Bonelli and Ruffino and took his skills global across continents. He knows how to blend old-school Tuscan tradition with modern innovation to create wines that actually taste amazing and cost way less than they should. This is your chance to get premium Tuscan wine before everyone else figures it out. Trust us—you'll want multiple bottles of this one.
