Released one year after the Vigna Grospoli, the organic Lamole di Lamole 2018 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto di Campolungo sources its fruit from a long expanse of vineyards (the largest in the Lamole subzone) that extends down from the hill of Lamole looking toward Greve, with sunset-facing exposures. This wine offers a creamy, mid-weight presentation with blackberry preserves, tarry spice and earthy iris root. Production is 15,000 bottles.

The organic Lamole di Lamole 2017 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto di Campolungo delivers easy ripe fruit and moderate complexity. This was a hot and dry vintage, but any over-ripeness is mitigated by the high elevation positioning (located at 420 to 576 meters above sea level) of the Campolungo vineyard. This is a 6,000-bottle release.

With a bouquet that shows layers of blackberry, dried cherry, sweet spice and toasted clove, the Lamole di Lamole 2016 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto di Campolungo is a modern, thickly extracted and heavier style of Chianti Classico with more fruit weight and a bigger oak presence. I'd say that these characteristics move the wine toward the more international side of the Chianti Classico style spectrum, and the elegance and age-worthiness of the wine are intact.

I'm happy to see the name of the vineyard on the front label of the 2013 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto di Campolungo. Vineyard designations are becoming an ever more important tool for vintners in this large appellation. It helps to draw attention to specific territorial characteristics. More work still needs to be done in this direction. This is a full and generous expression with dark fruit followed by a soft and layered presentation. Bright cherry and blackberry lead to spice, cured leather and grilled herb.
