2018 Chianti Classico Riserva

I love the classic design of this wine label. The 2018 Chianti Classico Riserva (a blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% Canaiolo) has some of that tarry earth or asphalt that we saw in the other releases from this estate. In this case, however, they are better balanced against dark fruit, black olive and grilled herb. This 23,300-bottle production represents a selection of fruit from across a five-hectare parcel.
