Chianti Classico, Chianti, Tuscany, Italy
Decanted for nearly four hours.
Cornmeal crust pizza w/ our fresh ingredients over a feta cheese, spinach & tomato base w/ a good 10 year old plus Chianti Classico, I’m all in!
$30…I’m happy.
This has a beautiful, round, lush body w/ early, nice integration on the beginning drinking window. Sweet & slightly sour black cherries, blackberries, plum, blueberries mix of boysenberries & raspberries, dark melted chocolate, mocha powder, well crafted baking spices, leather, mix of fresh & dark tobacco, dry, crushed limestone, dark spice, black olive, expresso notes, mid cola, black licorice, dry twigs, dry herbs, incense, touch of grilled meats, dark, rich forest floor w/ dry leaves, moist, grey clay, candied florals that are fresh to slightly withering & dark, purple, blue with excellent acidity, excellent balance & length and a rich polished finish that settles on volcanics & dry earthiness.
Really enjoying the 10 vintage.

A bit more tannin showing in this bottle, which is good for this wine's long term development. Otherwise, still beautifully balanced, expressive wine that continues to develop complexity in the glass, sour cherry and fainter underbrush that conveys a floral character to the wine. As somebody said, a seductive wine.

Richer style of Chianti Riserva, less acidic.
Underwood, potpourri, dried cherry, hint of prunes and herbs.

キャンティだが2010年。熟成の効いた、そしてフルボディの……ジビエの猪にぴったりだ。微かにバリックの香りにも裏打ちされている。
