Toscolo Chianti Classico DOCG 2024
Vintage Character
Toscolo Chianti 2024 is a Chianti DOCG from Tuscany, built primarily on Sangiovese with Canaiolo in support, and it captures the bright, food-friendly personality that defines this historic appellation. As a very young vintage, 2024 is best understood for its freshness and immediacy, with lively fruit and brisk structure likely to be the chief appeal, making it an attractive Chianti for value and versatility. The broader Chianti zone is shaped by rolling hillside vineyards and a mix of galestro and clay-limestone soils that suit Sangiovese especially well, helping deliver fragrant red fruit, savory lift, and the naturally vivid acidity that gives Tuscan reds their gastronomic edge.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, it offers aromas of red cherry, raspberry, violet, and red plum, with light white pepper, dried herbs, and a faint earthy nuance. The palate is medium-bodied and dry, with medium tannins, refreshing acidity, and a clean, energetic texture that keeps the wine focused rather than weighty; expect a finish centered on tart red berries, subtle spice, and a gentle savory note. Serve it with tagliatelle al ragù, roast chicken with herbs, or mushroom risotto for a classic and flexible match.
Winery Background
Toscolo was created by Neil and Maria Empson with the aim of offering an authentic, accessible expression of Chianti for a broad audience, guided by the expertise of celebrated Tuscan enologist Franco Bernabei, long associated with the refinement of Sangiovese. Rather than presenting a single-estate bottling, the wine draws on fruit from the Chianti zone to deliver consistency and regional character at scale. The house style favors clarity of fruit, freshness, and approachability, with controlled fermentation and restrained élevage designed to preserve varietal purity, making Toscolo a reliable benchmark for everyday Chianti value.
