Fattoria di Montagliari 2010 Chianti Classico Riserva

Varieties: Sangiovese 80%, 20% including Canaiolo, Colorino, Ciliegolo, Malvasia Nero.
Region: Chianti Classico DOCG
Vintage: 2010
Closure: Cork

Colour: Ruby
Alcohol: 13.5%
Bouquet: Dark bitter chocolate, sour cherry, a hint of vanilla

Flavour: Excellent. Dense. Great tannin. Some liquorice, driet fruit and savoury spice.
Points: Average 89 (534). My score 90 (3+8+12+8.5+8.5+50)
Notes: This came second in our Sangiovese tasting thanks to one member not liking the tannins in this and scoring it down. I thought it was the clear winner. This style is exceptional.
