Coltassala, Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG – 2005 – 92 points – International Wine Review
92 points
“A dark ruby 95% Sangiovese, 5% Mammolo blend from the low-yielding (1.8 tons/acre) single vineyard Coltassala, located at 1450 feet above sea level. Aged about 18 months in small French barriques, it shows a beautiful, perfumed bouquet of blackberry jam and smoky oak and a very fruity attack of concentrated blackberry fruit. Finishes long and lovely with purity of fruit and good acidity. An exceptional wine from an exceptional locale!”
