Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG
Decanter
4 stars
“Restrained aromas of tight fruit, savoury notes, roses and leather. Elegant red fruit with Marmite notes on the palate, refreshing acidity and soft, yet high tannins. Quite backward at the moment but is classcical in style. Will last.”

“The 2007 Chianti Classico Riserva shows quite a bit of warmth and spiciness in its dark red fruit. This is an attractive, mid-weight Chianti but the vintage doesn’t seem to have produced fruit with enough depth to stand up to the French oak, which overpowers the wine and contributes to the dry tannins. Overall, I expected more from the 2007 Riserva.”

“A silky and attractive red, with raspberry and dark cherry character. Medium and delicious.”
