Producer Spotlight: Tuscany's Tolaini

Over the past few years, the word Wine Advocate has used most often to describe Tolaini and it’s owner, Lia Tolaini-Banville, is “dynamic.” And you taste that dynamism in every one of this Chianti Classico estate’s classic and more innovative bottlings. We love  Tolaini's "entry-level" Sangiovese Donna Laura Ali and super-Tuscan Al Passo so much, it's easy to forget how brightly this estate shines in it's top bottling.  But you won't be able to overlook that sparkle once you taste:

Tolaini Toscana Rosso Valdisanti 2020 (WA 93)
Tolaini Chianti Classico Vallenuova 2022 (JS 92)
Tolaini Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna Montebello Sette 2020 (WA 95)
Tolaini Toscana Picconero Tenuta Montebello 2019 (WA 95)
Tolaini Sangiovese Toscana Mello 700 2020 (JS 95)

Those last two are a little on the "fancy" side of things with retail pricing of $165-$210.  But tasting these newest wines from Tolaini is sure to brighten any February gloom! Join Lia’s son, Alex, during any of the five 30 minute tasting slots on Thursday, February 20, and taste the excitement yourself!  No fee – just RSVP for your preferred time!
