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 which start with hints of cherry, plum and raspberry followed by
aromas of violet, blueberry and geranium. The mouth has good correspondence
to the nose, a properly tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, good
body, intense flavors, pleasing crispness. The finish is persistent with
flavors of cherry, raspberry and plum. This Chianti Classico partially ages
in barrique. |
