Coltibuono Chianti Classico 2006 Professional Ratings: Wine Advocate 87 Pts
Fattoria di Lucigano
Blend: Sangiovese - 80% Canaiolo - 10%
Merlot - 5% Colorino - 5%
Medium intensity ruby red with a fruity, intense, black cherry, violet nose and flavors soft, medium bodied, moderate acidity, quite tannic
Serving suggestions: Pasta dishes, medium aged cheese
Deep garnet ruby with black reflections and cherry rim paling to white. The bouquet is rich, with deft sour cherry fruit supported by savory accents and some bright, sour berry fruit acidity coupled with dusky shade and slight vegetal accents. Pleasant, and nicely balanced in a traditional key. On the palate it's medium bodied, with rich cherry and forest berry fruit supported by sour cherry acidity with underlying savory notes, and smooth sweet tannins that flow into a clean fresh sour cherry finish with a warm tannic underpinning. A pleasant food wine that will work very well with grilled meats or light stews, and also has the acidity necessary to go with fried meats and vegetables. Expect the bottle to go quickly. - Wine Advocate
