Flavor Profile
Since graduating top of his class at Florence’s wine university, “Paolo Masi has made an excellent impression with the estate wines of his family property,” writes top critic Robert Parker.
Excellent impression, indeed. Italy’s top wine guide Gambero Rosso has famously praised Paolo’s wines for their “irreproachably clean fruit and abundant personality.” And here’s Wine Spectator on their price tag: “Looking for a good Chianti that won’t break the bank? … always a good buy … excellent value.” (Such good value that Paolo’s 2009 Riserva ranked as Wine Spectator’s No. 1 “outstanding” Chianti buy of 2013.)
This latest release will show you why top critics and customers enjoy Paolo’s wines so much. It’s also a perfect taste of the very good 2019 vintage.

Be sure to act quickly. This is a perennial best-seller and Paolo could only make so much …
