The 2009 Castello di Monsanto Chianti Classico Riserva is fantastic, with lots of blackberries and cherries along with some loam, tobacco and hints of floral notes. Full and plush with well-integrated tannins and a polished finish that leaves juicy dark fruits lingering. Everything seems to be working here. (Best 2013-2019) - January, 2013 (JD)
