FROM THE CELLARS OF BADIA A COLTIBUONO
Coltibuono is a 10th century abbey restored by the Strucchi-Prinetti family. An estate of 50 hectares and a private cellar noted for its collection of old vintages. An unique 'vertical' of Riserva Chianti Classicos from this great estate spanning six great vintages.
Chianti Classico, Riserva
Tuscany. Badia a Coltibuono
--Vintage 1947(1)
--Vintage 1958(1)
--Vintage 1968(1)
--Vintage 1978(1)
--Vintage 1988(1)
--Vintage 1997(1)
Vintage note: 1947, the greatest immediate post-war vintage throughout Italy. Understandably, few remain. 1968, equally rare was more variable but particularly successful in Tuscany. 1978 was unquestionably the most successful all-round vintage of the decade. 1988, excellent but small production, the smallest crop in Tuscany for 25 years but the bottles in this lot will be drinking perfectly.
1997, the sort of vintage to gladden Italian hearts, some producers going as far as to say it is the best of the 20th Century. Without doubt superb wines with a great future. M.B.
