Piccini Chianti Riserva DOCG Gran Seleczione 2007


All wines tasted at the party held for baby Thomas on 25/08/2012. The ‘Black Label’. 13% ABV, about £12 UK retail. Castellina’s higher-level wine by Antonella Conti. Bright crimson, lovely black cherries fruit, hint of pencil box and raspberry. Quite rounded and velvety, nicely dry and raisiny finish. Slightly short finish but very pleasant budget Chianti. Better than some ‘cheap’ Chianti offerings. Ready now, 16 / 20
