2024 Antinori Pèppoli Chianti Classico DOCG

92 POINTS

Danielle Callegari - Wine Enthusiast

The nose brings aromas of vanilla bean, freshly brewed coffee, bing cherry and wild strawberry. Raspberries join more strawberries and cherries on the palate, but earthy undertones and chalky tannins ground things and create a substantial mouthfeel.

James Suckling

A spicy wine with aromas of licorice, dried flowers, bright red cherries, violets and blood oranges. Light-bodied, soft and extracted, with crisp acidity and a chalky finish.

Falstaff

Bright ruby red, luminous. Blackberries and rich cherries, with fine sweet spices. A beautiful freshness and fresh fruit on the palate, racy, slightly vegetal, loosely knit tannins, a slightly salty finish.Reviewers: Othmar Kiem, Simon Staffler

Antonio Galloni MW - Vinous

The 2024 Chianti Classico Pèppoli is a gorgeous entry-level wine from Antinori. Bright and punchy, with gorgeous fruity purity, the 2024 is a total delight. Lavender, mocha and blue/purplish fruit are nicely pushed forward. Floral notes perk up the refreshing finish. A picture-perfect example of the year.

Michaela Morris - Decanter

In Chianti Classico’s warm northwestern corner, Antinori’s Pèppoli estate extends over 100ha. The 2024 harvest was drawn out from 10 September to the first week of October. Fragrant florals are joined by aromas of blackcurrant coulis and cinnamon. Suave and gracious, the palate expands with fresh red berries and a touch of leather. Featuring soft acidity and smooth tannins, this polished midweight red flows with ease.
