2016 Castell'in Villa Chianti Classico Riserva

Chianti Classico DOCG Sangiovese more

5/1/2024 - Harley1199 Likes this wine: NR

Twenty Years On Wines, Some Luxury at Home; 4/19/2024-5/9/2024 (Alicante y Madrid - España): By the glass. Subzone of Castelnuovo Berardenga et Vagliagli. A perfume on the nose with more floral notes than fruity ones especially lavender and violets. The palate is full, plenty of finesse with resolute tannins and a tasty finish. Compete at the same level as Le Boince. Just outstanding.

Por copas. Subzona de Castelnuovo Berardenga et Vagliagli. Un perfume en nariz con más notas florales que frutales sobretodo de lavanda y violetas. Al paladar es un vino pleno, lleno de finura con taninos resueltos y un sabroso final. Compite al mismo nivel que Le Boince. Sencillamente fuera de lo común.

Twenty Years On Wines, Some Luxury at Home; 4/19/2024-5/9/2024 (Alicante y Madrid - España): By the glass. Subzone of Castelnuovo Berardenga et Vagliagli. Cornucopia of all kinds spice aromas on the nose. Too direct for my taste. On the palate it has all the characteristics of the best Chianti but without the pertinent depth. Very good certainly but known, without transmitting many emotions.

So it's been a few years since my last bottle. Still firing but definitely on its decline.

Drink cellar cool. No need for carafe or decant. Pop and pour.

Fades quickly and the fruit is gone. Drink up now. Still great, but not a lot of time left. T-bone, ravioli and asparagus for dinner. Very nice!

Medium light red. Lots of fresh floral red cherry fruit. The nose is very open and beautiful. The flavours are delicious with lots of fresh cherry and berry fruit and the finish is slightly minty and balanced.

Decanted an hour or more. Great fruit forward Chianti Classico. I have 4 more. It will be tough to resist. It seemed to have a lot of Radda character. Not what I expected from this producer.

Some reductive, burnt rubber on nose at first but blew off after 30 mins in decanter. Lovely concentrated smoky cherry on nose and palate with good intensity and finish, a pleasing bitterness. Slightly more intense version of the Badia a Coltibuono style.

2010 Castell'in Villa Chianti Classico Riserva Poggio delle Rose

Chianti Classico DOCG Sangiovese Blend, Sangiovese more

3/30/2024 - thesternowl wrote: 92 points

Poured into a decanter about 90min before service; enjoyed over a several hour period. The 2010 “Poggio delle Rose” pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of Bing cherries compote, red flowers, balsamic, oiled leather. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. This is a flashier expression of Chianti Classico Riserva by Castell’in Villa, with a modern touch. However, the sense of place is not even a question. This is Castelnuovo Berardenga through and through. Drinking well now with an extended decant and will continue to drink well through 2030, easy.

A vintage that continues to astonish for its balance, concentration, and purity of fruit, balanced and graceful yet of great structure and persistence.

Una annata che continua a meravigliare per il suo equilibrio, la sua concentrazione e la purezza del frutto, equilibrato e leggiadro ma di grande struttura e persistenza.

A business lunch (Restaurant De Juwelier *, Amsterdam, NL): A classical Classico. Transparent and fresh, good weight of ripe cherry fruit, hints of earth and tobacco, elegant and energetic, well-judged tannic grip, finish has very good length.

Not as good as an earlier vintage of this that I had in Rome. Maybe needs more time or maybe needs to be consumed in Italy.
Still, one of my preferred Chianti’s. Better with food and better on day 2. The rest of the spices and orange rind and tea like tannins really start to come out.

결론부터 말하면 간만에 만족한 데일리 와인.
사람 입이 얼마나 간사한지 말하자면 끝이 없겠지만 와인도 그러하다.
데일리 와인의 가격은 올라가면 올라가지 떨어지기 쉽지 않다.

그런 면에서 만족감을 줬던 이 와인은 노즈부터 괜찮았다.
상큼한 체리와 같은 붉은 과실향이 먼저 나는데 이어서 오크 향이 나기 시작한다.
시간이 지날수록 가죽향 비슷한 향이 나기 시작하는데 그렇다고 과실향이 사라지진 않는다.

팔렛에서는 쓴 맛이 아쉽긴 하지만 적당한 산도, 탄닌을 보여주고 있다.
그렇다고 산도가 엄청나게 치는 것이 아니라 적당해서 전통적인 키안티와는 조금 결이 다르다.
시간이 지나도 이러한 맛이 사라지지 않아서 길게 마셔도 즐거울 듯 싶다.

The wine is still medium+on acidity and medium on tannins - the fruit is mature cherries and blackberries - clearly earthiness and leather - the wine is still very structured and has a good balance and a fine aftertaste. I will however go done to 93 this time after have been on 94 for a while - this bottle is great - but is just missing something compared to the other bottles - hope is bottle variation still have 3 bottles left.

Opens with a bit of funkyness, some of it carries on but not disturbing after a while. Damp forest, strawberries, salmiak and perfume. Touch of cigarrbox. In the mouth its a pleasant light mouthfeel with noce nice energy. Balanced acidity and perfect amount of sangiovese bitterness. Present but controlled tannins. Its is not very long but leaves the mouth in a nice balanced way. Really good chianti!

My first aged Chianti. It was lovely and evolved very quickly once it was opened. Probably at its peak after about 45 minutes (not decanted) and by dessert was tasting like raisins...
