Supple and vividly fruited, Antinori Pèppoli Chianti Classico 2023 layers juicy black and red cherries with hints of blackberry, sweet spice and orange peel, framed by fresh acidity and fine, approachable tannins. Medium in body but long in flavor, it shows a lifted, refreshing character that reflects the cooler, more vibrant feel of 2023, making it especially inviting in its youth.

Pèppoli Chianti Classico from Marchesi Antinori is an approachable, fruit-forward expression of Chianti Classico—primarily Sangiovese with small additions of Merlot/Syrah—grown on the gravelly, mineral-rich slopes of the Pèppoli estate near Tignanello. Bright red-fruit and floral aromas (cherry, raspberry, violet) are supported by lively acidity, soft sweet tannins and subtle spice from ageing largely in large Slavonian oak casks with a small portion in barrique, making it an easy, food-friendly daily Chianti with clear sense of place.
