Badia a Coltibuono
An intense ruby red color, with aromas of cherry, tobacco, vanilla and a hint of spices, iris, violets and leather. It has a pleasantly lingering dry flavor with well-balanced tannins and good acidity.
Wine Spectator
Displays blackberry and cherry on the nose. Medium-bodied, with good fruit, fresh acidity and berry fruit on the finish. Drink now.
Score: 88. —James Suckling, September 30, 2008.Wine Enthusiast
You can tell by its thin but still very vibrant color that this is a traditional Chianti Classico (90/10 Sangiovese–Canaiolo) that puts emphasis on delicacy and balance, not on thick concentration. It is that quality that makes this wine well-suited to most Italian and Mediterranean dishes.
