Tasting notes
Poggio al Sole's 2008 Chianti Classico Riserva Casasilia is elegant and polished from start to finish. Silky tannins provide the backdrop for layers of expressive dark fruit, leather and licorice. This is an especially round, textured Riserva endowed with considerable depth and sheer class.
