Tasting notes Marchese Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva has a ruby red color. The nose is striking for the intense notes of ripe red fruit, cherry, currant and raspberry, alternating with delicate floral scents of dog rose, violet and lavender; the bouquet is completed by typical blood sensations combined with pleasant spicy nuances of tobacco, cinnamon and clove, with a sweet note of milk chocolate. On the palate it is balanced, with silky and vibrant tannins that give a good freshness and support a savory and persistent finish.
