Castello di Bossi Berardo 2019 Chianti Classico Riserva (DOCG)

 


Castello di Bossi Berardo 2019 Chianti Classico Riserva (DOCG), $23.79-$29.99, 90 points, poured core opaque ruby red with a clear meniscus and fat stained-legs.
Aromas were marked by herbal notes with soft cinnamon and red fruit smells.
This 2019 Castello di Bossi Berardo was a very good Chianti Classico Riserva, but not as good as I've been used to, with a bone-dry medium body, good acidity, grippy tannins, very grapy flavors with hints of black tea, red pepper, red raspberry, and dried cooking herbs.
Finished long on the trailing palate, plum notes, with a hint of black licorice, and a big 14.5% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with my Spaghetti in Marinara sauce.
