Barone Ricasoli, Rocca Guicciarda, Chianti Classico Riserva, Tuscany, Italy 2011

Aged for 15 months in a mix of barrels and foudres, this is a classy wine from an impressive vintage. About 20% of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot has been added to the Sangiovese to give extra complexity. You’ll find red cherry fruit, silky tannins, and a hint of sweet oak.
