Castello Di Bossi Berardo 2018 Chianti Classico Riserva, $25.59-$33.99, 92 points, poured a deep cranberry red with a very broad clear meniscus and copious fat legs.
The smokey aroma was nuanced with black tea, cinnamon, red currant, and lovely earth notes.
This, Chianti Classico Riserva, my third vintage of this wine, was as usual a wonderful vino experience. It was full-bodied, showed good acidity, rich indulgent flavors of plums, cherry fruit, mushrooms, oak, dried cooking herbs, and warm red pepper.
Finished long on the trailing palate and a robust 14% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with my pepperoni pizza and feta cheese.
