Chianti Classico reaches the pinnacle of the international wine scene with two outstanding recognitions in the prestigious Top 100 Wines of 2025<\/strong><\/a>, compiled by Antonio Galloni for <\/strong>Vinous.com<\/strong><\/a>, one of the most authoritative voices in wine criticism worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first place, as the best wine of the year, was awarded to the Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Il Poggio 2020 <\/strong><\/a>from Castello di Monsanto<\/strong>, praised for its extraordinary finesse, depth, and its ability to authentically express the Gallo Nero territory. Galloni describes it as: \u201cThe 2020 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna Il Poggio is a total stunner. What a wine. Elegant and translucent, the 2020 impresses with a sublime, finessed personality that is impossible to miss. Fine tannins and lifted, sensual aromatics immediately announce a wine of utter class. On the palate, the 2020 is wonderfully deep and layered, with mind-blowing balance and exceptional pedigree. The 2020 is one of the very finest Il Poggios ever made. It has been nothing short of breathtaking on the two occasions I have tasted it so far. Don’t miss it!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside this exceptional achievement, the Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto Bellavista 2022<\/strong><\/a> from Castello di Ama<\/strong> also appears in the ranking, having already been awarded a perfect score of 100\/100<\/strong>. Galloni describes it as: \u201cThe 2022 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto Bellavista is a total stunner. An exotic mix of blackberry, graphite, cloves, new leather, menthol, sage and lavender stains the palate. Readers will find a Gran Selezione of uncommon depth and gravitas. Time in the glass further reveals the wine’s profound complexity. Strong saline accents wrap up the finish. It’s the wine of the vintage in Chianti Classico and the purest essence of Ama.\u201d<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With two wines featured in the global ranking, Gallo Nero<\/strong> confirms its position among the great icons of Italian and international wine, serving as an ambassador of a territory where tradition and innovation have harmoniously coexisted for centuries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
