Score: ✧✧✧ |
This Chianti Classico shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of ruby red,
moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean and pleasing aromas
that start with hints of black cherry and plum followed by aromas of
pomegranate, cyclamen, strawberry, violet and vanilla. The mouth has good
correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and however balanced
by alcohol, good body, intense flavors, good tannins. The finish is
persistent with flavors of black cherry and plum. This Chianti Classico ages in cask
for about 14 months.
