 Tasted by KeithAkers on 3/14/2013 & rated 90 points: Chianti Classico tasting- the black rooster crows at the dawn of a new age (Allerton Hotel, Chicago IL): Nose: Very savory and perfumed nose with beautiful tones of incense, dark red cherries, red berries, floral tones and some bits of spices as well.

Taste: Well polished medium feel with medium+ acidity and silky tannins. Well balanced with savory tones of incense, dark red cherries, berries, and wild spices.

Overall: This is a really damn good chianti classico. There is a real savoriness to it that is very attractive. (2080 views)

Sangiovese Blend

Sangiovese blend is used in CellarTracker for Italian wines to represent wines predominantly made of Sangiovese and blended with traditional Italian grapes. It is different than SuperTuscan which is a blend of Sangiovese with non-traditional (eg Bordeaux) varieties, often in closer to equal portions. For example, Chianti is at least 80% Sangiovese and will always be listed Sangiovese blend.
