This vintage of the 2021 Il Fauno Di Arcanum is 35% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Franc, 25%
Cabernet Sauvignon, and a splash of Petit Verdot. It’s expressive out of the gate with
aromas of graphite, blackcurrant, candied flowers, and fresh tobacco, and it’s a total
charmer on the palate as well, with just the slightest giveaway of its provenance with notes
of Mediterranean herbs on the finish. It is full-bodied and ripe, with a supple texture and a
lovely finish. Drink 2025-2037.

The 2021 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Campolupi sports a magenta color in the glass
and offers ripe notes of menthol, black cherries, pine needles, and violets. With a medium

even acidity coming through for a long and slightly warming finish. While I’m personally
leaning toward the Riserva as my favorite wine in the range, this has a lot to offer and
should drink and age well over the coming 10-15 years.
