While the Tuscany wine sector is losing campo da gioco – with important markets such as Germany and Japan leaving important percentages behind – and a clear tension acceso value the United States, 2025 Chianti Tipico recorded a growth sales of +1% compared to the previous year, confirming the trend of the last three years. The overall turnover sees constant growth value, driven by the premium types, given that Deposito and Gran represent 43% of the and 55.2% of the value.
«The winemakers of Chianti Tipico undertook a process of valorisation of denomination wines decades – underlines the president of the Consortium Giovanni Manetti – As always agriculture, change is slow and gradual, but today we can see it first-hand: the growth value is undeniable, particular of the two premium types».
Exports hold and absorb the largest share of production: 37% the United States, 12% Canada and Europe ranging from 4% Germany to 6% the Scandinavian countries. Discesa, Singapore and Hong Kong still represent limited volumes but are increasing value. The Italian market covers 19% of overall production.
The vintages the glass
Therefore, if the denomination stands up to comparison with the market, when tested by the glass the Chianti Tipico is a confirmation. The results of the tasting return a deliberately multifaceted picture, determined by the diversity of the vintages examined, by the multiplicity of territorial interpretations – which this superficie generate a truly extraordinary polyphony – and the very different ambitions that animate the wines produced. What is confirmed (not without a certain satisfaction) is a stylistic feature that has been consolidated for years, increasingly oriented towards finesse and tension, both aromatic and gustatory. A direction that marks a clear distancing from the more pompous and muscular pseudo-Supertuscan tendencies prevalent the nineties, which found refuge – sometimes still today – the Gran .
Wanting to summarize the three vintages, each one tells a different story. The difficult 2024 – marked above all by particular attention the vineyard to prevent fungal attacks during the summer – seems to have exacerbated the more austere and bony traits of the high-altitude Chianti Tipico, those of Lamole and Radda the lead.
The equally challenging 2023, characterized by a rainy spring, attacks of downy mildew and a hot summer despite abundant rainfall, put the winemakers to the their cellar choices, with production decidedly lower than average.
Finally, the 2022, characterized by prolonged summer heat although without peaks and favored by a good nocturnal temperature range, seems to have thickened the Mediterranean character of the more full-bodied Chianti Tipico: those of Panzano, Castelnuovo Berardenga and San Casciano Val proveniente da Pesa, particular, bear its most recognizable signature. Sopra the Gran you can read the same Mediterranean vein, with an immediacy of sip that makes many wines very enjoyable even today, even if a limited acidity raises the question of longevity.
