Chianti Classico Riserva 2015- castello Banfi

This is a red wine from the Castle Banfi in Tuscany. It is a Chianti Classico Riserva 2015. We visited this winery twice of which ones in August 2015 during the last weeks of that growing season. It was a perfect one as I remember. Warm weather and perfect conditions. The wine reflects that. The color is ruby, it’s translucent with a medium viscosity (13.5% abv). The nose it’s invitating and suadent with notes of cherries and strawberries tertiary notes of leather. The palate confirms the nose with a perfectly balanced acidity and tannins , a medium body and a medium persistence. In summary a good Chianti with a great sensorial experience and a perfect pairing with any pasta in red sauce or pizza and of course with a good steak ( as we tasted it). PM:90
