The 2015 Chianti Classico is rocking stuff that shows the warmer style of the vintage yet stays fresh, vibrant, and even elegant. Almost opaque ruby-hued, with gorgeous notes of ripe cherries, kirsch, white pepper, licorice, tar, and violets, I’d almost guess Nebbiolo blind off the nose. This carries to a ripe, medium to full-bodied, rich, beautifully concentrated Chianti that pretty much just knocks it out of the park. If you like the richer side of Sangiovese made with class and elegance, don’t miss this. It should cruise for 10-15 years in cold cellars.
