One of my first bottles of the great 2015 vintage. Celebrating the first day of the summer holiday on a sunny evening. Cheers!

Jul 17th, 2020Nice Chianti Classico riserva, though would love to see with more age. Definitely get a bit of the classic Chianti earthy rusticity, but this has some real elegance too. A very nice pairing with a Bistecca at the excellent Osteria del Pavone in Florence.
