San Fabiano Calcinaia Chianti Classico 2016
Florence, Tuscany, ItalyBitter cherry, dried cassis, plum, worn leather snake through this organic, rustic Chianti Classico, one that feels somewhat sluggish with time, even though it's a youthful 2016. This bottle's bret gives way to iron pan lining the medium-bodied, brawny palate, with the metal overrunning into the tannins and creating a bitter astringency through the spiced finish. Fermented in stainless, this spent one year in small new French oak barrels before bottling.Tasted: 28 June 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $27.00 | 750ml | |
