Il Molino di Grace Chianti Classico 2024

In another time, I might have said something like “this is the chronic”, and the fact is we literally begin salivating when the next vintage of Molino di Grace arrives in the warehouse. 92 POINTS, 50% OFF, biodynamically farmed in the heart of Panzano...man, we live for these days. Just a heads-up: a bit less than last year, so fans (and there are thousands of you) should JUMP...

Sangiovese peeps! Chianti-heads! People who just like saying “Panzano”! It’s a done deal! Our fearless leader of crunchy, savory, palate-tickling Tuscan goodness is BACK – Il Molino di Grace! Directly translated as “windmill of grace”, owned by the Grace family since 1998, that word could define this new release – lower alcohol (though it was never particularly high…), hyper-fresh and crunchy red fruit that begs for pasta, heirloom tomatoes, cheese and smoky ham, anything from Tuscany that inspires you (we’re doing lamb) and oh man are we inspired!! I got my case (and another for my spouse)! The estate dates back to the ELEVENTH century and if you are ever there, call us. We will hook you up for one of the most dreamy tastings you will ever have!

Most of you savvy LBer’s are hip to this Panzano-based producer already, champions and boosters as we have been for years, so let me just launch into how good this new release 2024 is feeling at 10 AM Napa World Headquarters time, and how MAD it would be to miss it (at 50% OFF??).

Tricky’s “Starry Eyed Surprise” might be the soundtrack at this second – bright, happy, dreamy, wistful, infectiously-grooved, brain-tickling, feet-tapping. BLASTS out with that pure, pure red assorted berry fruit – tart cherries, sweet rhubarb, raspberry, and rosewater…you can’t use the word “crunchy” enough – so savory and fresh your mouth will be awash as you reach into the pantry for the pasta. When your brain recovers, there’s slashes of a blackberry you picked on a hike in the woods, a hint of vanilla bean, a whiff of truffle even, but it’s all about the laser-focused fruit. Absolutely CRUSHING it this year…what can we say?! Hurry!
