WineDiva's Review

The Riserva tier is the second highest level of Chianti Classico wines after Gran Selezione. This one, from Carpineto comes from estate Sangiovese and Canaiolo vines; it was aged in casks and barrels for one year, then left to age in bottle for at least ten more months in cellar.
Notes of strawberry and cedar chips are woven with rose petals and vanilla, rosemary, pipe tobacco, star anise and cherries. It has a supple entry and sweet expressive fruit flavours alongside leather dusted with cocoa. Lovely acidity and structure, it has a silky texture and chalky tannins. Lengthy and beautifully woven.


 
Recommended Pairings
Rich Meats , Good First Impressions, Cellar Keepers, Italian Food, Tomatoes and Tomato Sauces
