TASTING NOTE: The 2006 Chianti<br />
Classico Riserva is a big, super-ripe wine<br />
loaded with black cherries, blueberries,<br />
French oak and spices. Stylistically, this<br />
is a concentrated, voluminous Riserva<br />
with terrific persistence and balance. It is<br />
one of the finest wines I have tasted<br />
here in some time. The Riserva spent 24<br />
months in French oak. Anticipated<br />
maturity: 2012-2018. Score: 90 (Antonio<br />
