Tuesday, September 2, 2008 - No detailed notes, but I recall this chianti being rather thin, a bit too acidic, and simple. That being said, I am holding this wine to the high standard of the Castello di Monsanto '04, the last CCR I had. This wine did open up a bit after an hour in the decanter. Still, while ample with a tomato sauce-based dinner, this wine is not what I would expect from a Chianti Classico Riserva. You can do much better from '04 for the price if you look around.
