Castello di Bossi Chianti Classico Riserva Berardo

"Highly Recommended: This full-bodied version shows beautiful dark chocolate and ripe black cherry aromas, with firm tannins and sweet, ripe fruit. Long and very beautiful. Structured. Best from 2010 through 2015. 5,000 cases made.-JS" (Oct 15, 2009) 90 points Stephen Tanzer for International Wine Cellar: "Plush and silky but also well focused, with ripe flavors of red cherry, plum and sweet licorice. Finishes with smooth-as-silk tannins, an attractive glyceral texture, and an impression of residual sweetness. This is quite enjoyable now, and I wouldn't wait much longer to enjoy it.
