This is a very tasty Chianti Classico Reserva. This 7 year old is still young, but already enjoyable even by itself.
Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with red and black fruits, oak, coffee, earth, spices, vegetables, tobacco leaf and peppercorn.
Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years.
A good food wine that I paired with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.
A blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% Canaiolo. Aged in French oak barrels for 24 months.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$35.

@weinmax - for a Chianti not too shabby. Paired well with pasta and meatballs, but then again, what doesn’t?!!

It is 32 degrees at 20.00 hrs and we are sitting in a beautiful garden enjoying a fantastic dinner with the family. Perhaps that gives a slightly higher grade….. 😉 the wine is true to type with some hints of chocolate even. Silky.
