  5. 2018 Castellare di Castellina, Sodi San Niccolo, IGT
“The 2018 I Sodi di San Niccolò is the most elegant Sodi I have ever tasted, and I have tasted them all.” Those are the opening words of Antonio Galloni’s review of this celebrated Tuscan red. He has a point. Even with the imposing tannic structure, the supple fruits and focused purity shine of I Sodi di San Niccolò through from start to finish. Perhaps this complexion shouldn’t surprise us, considering Castellare’s reputation. The estate has long used traditional winemaking practices that prioritize quality above all else. For instance, it does not use synthetic chemicals, and its yields per acre are significantly lower than the threshold level allowed by Chianti Classico DOCG. The result: wine with beautifully concentrated aromas and flavors along with unending elegance. The Final Sip: Castellare parlayed the magnificent 2018 vintage into one of the finest versions of I Sodi di San Niccolò ever.
