Riserva Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend
This casts a sense of relaxation & ease in the glass. The structure reveals a sturdy frame, but the Merlot addition adds a silky, inviting character here. The spicy nuances that I look for in Chianti are evident & the red fruited aromatics carry through the palate & show purity and depth/nuance in lovely balance.
