Nozzole Chianti Classico Riserva, Chianti (750ml)

Sangiovese from Chianti

Vintage: 2010
Description: A wine with attractive berries and chocolate character. Full body, soft tannins and a clean finish. A little reserved now. Better in 2014. 91 points, James Suckling (Nov 2013). Freshly cut flowers, mint, dark red cherries and anise are some of the notes that waft from the glass in the 2010 Chianti Classico Riserva. This is one of the more weightless, gracious wines of the vintage. The style is quite soft and supple, but all the fruit is nicely supported by clean veins of mouth-watering acidity. 90 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media (Aug 2013). From Giovanni and Ambrogio Folonari, the 2010 Chianti Classico Riserva opens to ripe tones of black currant and prune. It doesn't have the great complexity of the vintage but it does offer an honest experience. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2020. 89 points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (Issue # 208 - Aug 2013). Elegant and intense, delivering cherry, leather, bitter almond and tea flavors on a dense profile. Finishes a bit dry, but shows complexity. Drink now through 2016. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 33,300 cases made. 89 points, Wine Spectator (Oct 2013). This wine opens with aromas of black plum, grilled bell peppers, cedar and spice. The dense palate offers black cherry, espresso, chocolate and black pepper alongside firm but fleeting tannins. 89 points, Wine Enthusiast (Apr 2014)
