Rocca di Montegrossi Chianti Classico 2011
Tuscany, ItalyEarthy, black cherry, peppery, savoury, meaty, rooty, coffee grind aromas. Dry, round, smooth palate but a bit fresh and warm. Coffee, black cherry jam, prune, earthy, tobacco, smoky tea flavours with a bit of chocolate and light tannins on the finish. More open style with some finesse. Bigger than you might expect likely due to the 5 per cent colorino. Certified organic.Tasted: 17 July 2014Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $38.00 | 750ml |
