Richard Baudains

Tasting: Chianti Classico Riserva

Low key, red fruit nose. Palate hot and fruity, low acidity, good firm Sangiovese tannin. Some length, bone dry.

Emily O'Hare

Tasting: Chianti Classico Riserva

Oaky nose, rounded, solid, on palate fruit is rich and concentrated. Just what you expect from a Riserva. Personally I find the oak dominating a little too much. Very chunky Chianti Classico but will age gracefully.

Michael Palij

Tasting: Chianti Classico Riserva

High-toned, tarry, medicinal nose with a lack of obvious fruit. Finish is simple and lacks power apart from the oak-derived tannins.
