Product Details
2005 Chianti Classico, 'Rubiolo', Gagliole, Castellina-in-Chianti
(code: 65378B)
"Ever since the il fiasco/flask era of the ‘60s, Chianti’s had to work hard to
regain lost ground. The denominazione ‘Classico’ has helped focus the mind on
the most serious zone but more attention needs to be paid to the racy,
high-toned gems sourced from elevated, stony vineyards surrounding the villages
of Panzano, Greve and as here, Castellina. Chianti Classico, 'Rubiolo'is
blessed with a beautifully rose & raspberry scented perfume, while the
palate is very fine & racy, with delicious summer red berry fruit & an
immaculate tannic structure. Drinking now. Great with kidneys" (David Berry
