2016 Casali di Bibbiano Casalone Toscana IGT

Twenty Years On Wines, Some Luxury at Home; 4/19/2024-5/9/2024 (Alicante y Madrid - España): By the glass. From Castellina area. Maybe just a couple of steps below that Capaninno but twice as much in price. Blend of Sangiovese, colorino and Trebbiano. Modern and misunderstood.
The rest of the outstanding bottles of Chianti, when shopping is finished, to be tasted at the end of the month, even June. Obviously we have fatigue on the palate.

Por copas. De la zona de Castellina. Quizás sólo un par escalones por debajo respecto al Capaninno pero al doble en cuanto a precio. Mezcla de Sangiovese, colorino y Trebbiano. Moderno e incomprendido.
El resto de las botellas pendientes de Chianti, cuando finalicen las compras, para ser catadas a finales de mes, junio incluso. Evidentemente tenemos fatiga en el paladar.

I think this is a fantastic and very drinkable sangiovese from a vineyard literally about 900 feet from the river dividing the brunellos from just a "rosso" just outside Montalcino. Great body, nose with rose petals and some tar. Still great acidity and mellowing tannins.

This bottle showed very well. Almost no air needed. Dried dark fruit, good balance of tannins and acidity. nice long dry finish. A perfect match with grilled steak. Wish I had more! Somewhat of an unsung hero of the fantastic 2006 vintage.

Light garnet in color, this wine (70% Sangiovese/15% Merlot/15% Cabernet Sauvignon) reveals focused aromas of bitter cherry, forest floor and anise on the nose. The mouth feel is medium bodied with more cherry, strawberry, sage and subtle mushroom undertones. The finish is longer in length and the red fruits, spices and moderate acidity are wonderfully balanced. 13% abv.

Purchased for $18US at a dreaded PLCB store in Center City Philly, I wasn't expecting much from this but a 10+ year old Tuscan red for $18? I'll gamble on it. My gamble paid off. This is a delicious offering that became more and more complex over the 60+ minutes it was open.

Nice body for an old Rosso. Tertiaries - dried strawberries, cedar, and leather with violets on the finish. Brick red. Nearing the end of its life.

Unfortunately my last bottle. full bodied, nice lingering taste, rich nose. I think this bottle was as good as any of my 2006 purchases - I don't know why the average drink dates are 2011 - 2015

This wine is surely at the end of its window, the red is slightly brown, but it is still a nice wine, very smooth and a reasonable body that would suit any number of dishes or on its own. I would drink up though it is very near its desired time.

My last bottle was 2013 when I commented it needed much more time. I let more time go by than I planned, but I was very pleased with my wait. Nice full-bodied well balanced wine. Didn't lose anything drinking the 2nd day. I think it is at its peak now, but no hurry.

Unremarkable. Was looking to pull a bottle for an Italian tasting that had enough age on it to be settled in, but this didn't have much personality. Purple fruit, but of minerality, but soft nose and palate. Drink now.

PnP off a restaurant list. This seemed open and ready to go with the influence of Merlot dominating.

Very nice Tuscan blend. Has really improved with some cellar time.
At peak IMO. Dark fruit and cassis, full bodied and well integrated tannins. Another example of the great 2006 vintage.

A Tuscan representation of Lynch Bages. This is so good. Full bodied. Huge fruit. Rustic. Still has plenty of tannins. Absolutely peaking. Not too cloying.

Blood color, garnet with black core; huge, wild nose upon opening, typical cabernet fragrance, nice sawdust and dark red fruits, oak coming through but in balance; cedar, good acidity, medium length. A bit disappointing after 30 minutes; nice, medium-big Bordeaux style SuperTuscan that seemed upon opening like a great wine, but which retreated to being a merely good one.
