Chianti Classico Sangiovese

9.2

This is really tasty. Primarily cherry, autumn spice, and orange zest, with hints of balsamic, mint, dried fruits coming through. Unfortunately the finish was a bit hot and very tangy. I enjoyed it overall though. This is the 2018 vintage. — 8 days ago

I don't spend a lot on Chianti. In the $20 range there are plenty of winners and losers. This is pretty good. Juicy cherries, chewy tannins, vibrant acidity. Better than the average 8.7 score it's received.

@Dave, I agree with your $20 or so perspective on Chianti Classico!!

Dave

I can count on 1 hand the number of times I've spent more than $40 on CC. @Doug Powers

Doug Powers

@Dave, I likely have never even reached ONE such CC as far as pricing!!

Such pure dark berry fruit, concentrated almost black berry fruit snacks. A little toast, clove, and black tea. Rustic edges. Luscious currant and berry fruit fill the mouth. Softening tannin. Stands up well to steak. Solid length. From Tuscany. Outstanding QPR. — 5 years ago

Quite brown and oxidative despite perfect cork. Plummy, licorice, dark chocolate, interesting secondary flavors and good amount of tannins left. High 14.5%. In a perfect spot but at the end its life. So yes drink up. — 5 months ago

A really good chianti. Aroma is just fantastic. It puts your nose alive with fruit and earth. A smooth earthy wine with medium body. Recommend but probably not worth the price. — 9 years ago
