Outstanding, complex, rich, full, silky. This Chianti Classico Riserva is all of the above and much more. Made using only the best Sangiovese grapes and aged in small barrels, barriques, it has a ruby color tending to garnet with ageing, is complex on the nose with, initially, hints of vanilla that then become berries, tobacco, smoke, and many more aromas. In the mouth is well balanced, round, elegant, silky and harmonious. The finish is long and with a fine and delicate aftertaste. To fully appreciate the wine, it is recommended to decant it
