2013 Rocca di Castagnoli Poggi ai Frati Riserva Chianti Classico Aromas of violet, tobacco and a whiff of fresh sage lead the nose on this savory wine. The juicy chewy palate offers ripe black cherry, clove and star anise while fine-grained tannins provide support. Drink through 2023. Vinous 90 2018-01-08
2012 Rocca di Castagnoli Buriano Cabernet Sauvignon The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Buriano is a promising wine, especially if the tannins soften. There is terrific purity to the fruit, and hints of game, smoke, licorice and pepper add layers of dimension. Vinous 90 2018-01-08
2013 Rocca di Castagnoli Stielle 2013 Chainti Succulent red cherry fruit and expressive floral notes meld together in the 2013 Stielle, Rocca di Castagnoli's top Sangiovese. The flavors are deep and vibrant. This is in an especially supple style for the year, but it all works quite nicely. Vinous 92 2018-01-08
2014 Hentley Farm Shiraz Clos Otto Powerful in nature, this wine is full of raspberry, red cherry, earth and floral notes, with some charred wood in the background. There’s some heat on the palate alongside overt oak and chewy tannins, but the acidity is there, as is the fruit. This just needs time in the cellar. Drink 2020–2037. Wine Enthusiast 91 2018-01-05
2015 Hentley Farm The Beauty Still a baby and therefore rather shy in the glass, a few good swirls eek out aromas of cherry cola, sweet spice and dusty oak. The tannins are big but integrated, with vibrant acidity and herbal, medicinal flavors. This is a rich, powerful style, but give it time and watch it shine. Drink 2019–2032.

2014 Hentley Farm The Beast As the name suggests, this wine is indeed big and powerful, but it’s elegant and classy too. Heady notes of violets, red berries, smoked meat, white pepper and licorice are entwined with tightly wound, fine-grained tannins. One for the cellar. Drink 2019–2032. Wine Enthusiast 92 2018-01-05
