The 2006 Tenuta La Novella is an exceptional Chianti Classico, delivering seductive aromas of blackberry and ripe dark cherries, which are followed by heirloom tomato, spices, tobacco, leather and fresh mint. It possesses a gorgeous velvety texture and wonderful balance. The finish is long, with juicy dark cherries, spices and leather leaving a lasting impression. Today, this is drinking beautifully, but it still requires some air contact for it to show its full potential. (Best 2014-2023) - April, 2014 (JD)
