Certified organic since 2010, the estate is a benchmark for terroir-driven farming in a region where land values and wine prices now rival Bordeaux's most prestigious addresses. Today, daughters Martina and Lisa carry the operation forward alongside their father, combining a deep respect for the land with a clear sense of where they want to take the wines stylistically. As the sisters put it, \"We've pursued our own stylistic path, and with the 2021 vintage, we've marked a significant milestone. We're very proud to have reached it without losing touch with our roots.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe 2021 Guado de' Gemoli, a selection from the estate's oldest vines aged 20 months in French oak, has drawn some of the most enthusiastic notices of any Chiappini release in recent memory. Kerin O'Keefe awarded it 97 points, calling it \"the best vintage I've had to date of this stunning wine\" and Gambero Rosso awarded its top Three Glasses designation for 2025.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The smooth, enveloping 2021 Guado de' Gemoli is outstanding, and the best vintage I've had to date of this stunning wine. A blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon 15% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, it opens with heady aromas of violet, lavender juniper, cassis, dark spice and eucalyptus. Full-bodied and possessing a weightless concentration, the delicious palate doles out spiced blueberry, raspberry, red currant, truffle and layers of baking spice underpinned by tangy saline notes. Elegant tannins provide polished support. Drink through 2036.” 97 - Kerin O’Keefe (8\/24)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\"Bright, intense ruby, garnet hints. Intense and savoury aromas of cherry compote, currants, liquorice, coffee and a touch of lavender. Harmonious and elegant on the palate, initially silky and smooth, yet with plenty of tension, finely woven tannins and a very long finish.” 96 - Falstaff Guide (10\/24)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\"A blend of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Cabernet Franc and 20% Merlot, the Chiappini 2021 Bolgheri Superiore Guado de' Gemoli is a richly extracted red wine that delivers the power and focus of the vintage in full force. There's no doubting the hot-vintage ripeness of the fruit, the generous use of oak and all the other elements that give this wine such a large footprint. The character is a little old school, but the qualities of the vintage shine through nicely in this nice executed wine. The grapes are sourced from three hectares of 30-year-old vines. Drink: 2025-2038.” 95 - Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate (2\/25)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Wine Club","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47815398457602,"sku":null,"price":84.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/1419\/7817\/files\/CHIAPPINI-GUADO-DE-GEMOLI.jpg?v=1779409686","url":"https:\/\/thewineclub.com\/products\/2021-giovanni-chiappini-bolgheri-superiore-guado-de-gemoli-750ml","provider":"The Wine Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
