2016 Ricasoli Brolio Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG
Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, October 2019
“An expression of fresh cherry greets the nose in this taut red, yet this remains austere on the palate, with fruit, iron, earth and oak spice flavors bound up in a grip of tannins. Everything is in the right place, but this needs time. Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2022 through 2042.”
