2015 Castello di Monsanto Chianti Classico Riserva
Community Tasting Note
Worldb Likes this wine:
90 Points
Wednesday, December 29, 2021 - First bottle 6 months ago was so off that it must have been flawed...strong manure odor and flat. This time it was delicious. Medium tannins with sour cherries/cedar/tobacco and good balancing acid. Excellent qpr at Costco but they don't stick around long.
