Marchese Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva 2000

Tuscany, ItalySmoky, meaty, peppery, chocolate, leather and tobacco aromas with some high-toned cherry jam notes. Ripe, round, supple and warm but balanced with light tannins. Nice black cherry, plum, licorice root, smoky, meaty, black peppery flavours. Nearly mature, has good fruit intensity on the finish in an attractive style for current consumption. Well done.Tasted: 13 October 2005Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
