The 2007 Chianti Classico Riserva shows very little of the sexiness and radiance of this great Tuscan vintage. Today, the 2007 comes across as rather closed in on itself and not revealing much at all. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2017. Importer: Empson, USA, Alexandria, VA; tel. (703) 684-0900

Maturing notes of leather, underbrush and dried cherry signal this firm, well-toned red. Shows good balance, with tannins that stay in line. Good with grilled steak or pasta and ragù. Drink now through 2020. 2,916 cases made.??–BS??Region: Italy / Chianti Classico Select to Add
