Truly superb wine pleasure and outstanding affordability for its age, straight from the winery.

Voluptuous and full-bodied wine with a deep, intense ruby red hue. The nose is led by by ripe red fruit, with soft whispers of tobacco and oak, as the tasting reveals a cohesive stability of red fruit, black cherries, and a touch of pepper. The full-bodied backbone is well-tempered, with a satisfying dry tannin profile that adds nuance to the wine. The conclusion is long and elegant, with a mild dryness that leaves a staying impression.

55-year-old wine is a real pleasure to drink, presenting a rich, well-rounded discovery that has stood the test of time.

What the web is saying

Coltibuono Chianti Classico Riserva is praised for its rich, full-bodied character, featuring notes of cherry, forest floor, and oak. While some appreciate its smooth tannins and elegant finish, others find it slightly tannic and dry. The wine's complexity is highlighted by hints of spice, leather, and herbs, offering a satisfying experience for both seasoned and new wine enthusiasts.

This Coltibuono Chianti Classico Riserva is a bold and powerful Italian red wine. On the nose, aromas of ripe cherry, blackberry, and forest floor leaf mingle with nuances of cedar, leather, and violet. The palate is well-structured, with firm tannins, balanced acidity, and a long finish. Notes of dark fruit, forest floor, and leather linger on the palate. This full-bodied wine is sure to please fans of traditional Italian reds. Enjoy it now or cellar for few years.
