La Castellina 2011 Chianti Classico

Country: Italy /
Variety: Red Blend Tuscany
Winery: La Castellina / Chianti Classico

Earthy aromas of underbrush, plum and spice carry over to the palate, along with raspberry, red cherry and espresso flavors. The juicy palate is restrained by firm tannins that follow through to the finish. It’s straightforward and enjoyable now, but another year will round it out.
