Score 88/100 · Drink 2021-2025, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Mar 2021
With fruit from Castellina in Chianti, the Banfi 2016 Chianti Classico Riserva opens to dark plummy flavors with tart blackberry and wild cherry. This is a simple and streamlined expression that delivers on the basic promise of a Riserva with solid and powerful fruit tones that are enhanced by spice, earth and crushed flowers. This is your quintessential trattoria wine to serve with a truly Tuscan pennette alla boscaiola.
