This creates a wide day-night temperature swing, which keeps the fruit extra fresh while abundant sunshine helps ripen the grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e     \n\n\u003cp\u003eBut the winemaker has a lot to do with it, too. For over two decades, Paolo has been earning heaps of praise for making his family’s wines better and better. Robert Parker has said that \u003cb\u003e“Paolo Masi has made an excellent impression with the estate wines of his family property.”\u003c\/b\u003e Italy’s top wine guide, \u003ci\u003eGambero Rosso,\u003c\/i\u003e meanwhile, says his wines offer “irreproachably clean fruit and abundant personality.” \u003c\/p\u003e  \n\n\u003cp\u003eFor this bottling, Paolo insisted on using only the finest, top-grade oak barrels to age the wine for 14 months. It was then aged even longer in bottle—about 10 months—which means it’s ready and delicious right now, but will also develop nicely over the next few years.\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\n\u003cp\u003ePrevious vintages have earned 90+ points and been called \"composed and juicy\" and \"pretty and understated\" by top critic James Suckling. This release, with red and black berry flavors, plum and spice accented by bittersweet chocolate notes, is just as delicious—\u003cb\u003eand is guaranteed to go fast.\u003c\/b\u003e Hurry to secure your share.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lionstone International","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68083269173557,"sku":"0004723","price":12.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.lionstone.com\/products\/collezione-di-paolo-chianti-riserva-2023","provider":"Lionstone International","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
