Riserva Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend

Promise in this wine, there is! (Yoda voice)... I bought two bottles, one I opened today, and one I plan to age.
Full bodied. A lot going on. Cherry. Silky tannins.

A good Sangiovese - 2015 Vintage would definitely introduce to someone who wants to experience Sangiovese black cherry , cured meat , tar,earth ,vanilla high acidity ( great food wine )

Did not taste like a Chianti to me, but I’m also drunk. Regardless it’s good.

Nose of wood, cherry and dried cranberries. Soft and mild, w very light tannins. Has lost that vibrancy I like in Chianti, and the finish fades quickly. Probably should not have kept it this long.

Nice acidity and tannin. Low alcohol. Dark fruit. Pretty dry. Great food wine

Feb 27th, 2021Not bad for a 10 bottle at Costco. Good flavors and modest aromas. Good table wine. Would get again.

Nov 15th, 2020This was an excellent Sangiovese. Flavors of dried cherries, a little earth and a crisp clean finish. It went well with the Mediterranean food we paired it with. It seems like a wine with good aging potential. I would definitely buy it again and put a few bottles up for a while.
