Querciabella Chianti Classico 2004
|
Medium ruby. Red and black fruit aromas are currently dominated by eucalyptus and menthol. Sweet, soft flavors of ripe black cherry and smoky plum are complicated by balsamic oak and black pepper notes. The moderately long, slightly warm finish reveals serious tannins that will require patience-something true of all the reds from this estate.

A firm, fruity red, with oak-tinged black currant and a hint of roasted spice. Medium-bodied, with good spicy fruit flavors and a firm mineral finish. Gorgeous and subtle. This estate is going places. Best after 2006. 11,600 cases made.

The nose is rich and opulent, but it is also very ripe—just shy of too ripe. Thick and broad aromas of black cherry essence, smoked ham, leather, tobacco and beet root are direct and generous. The wine has raw intensity overall and cool freshness on the finish.
