Poggio Bonelli delivers a soft, chewy expression of Chianti Classico with ripe berry aromas backed by sweet spice, almond paste and nutmeg. There’s an interesting touch of bitter rose petal on the close.

Raw but lively, with mega intensity. Big and leathery, with tight tannins. The flavor profile is sure, as robust dried fruit morphs into coffee and chocolate. And there’s a fine minty undercurrent keeping everything in focus. Worth aging for several more years.

Villa Chigi Chianti is characterized by bright berry nuances of cherry and raspberry followed by a crisp, tart close. Pair this wine with stewed chicken cacciatore.

The warm 2005 vintage produced loads of wines with chewy or jammy fruit. But this Riserva shows a tight nose that is characterized by crisp berry aromas and light spice. There is intensity, but in no way is it exaggerated.
