2007 Castello della Paneretta Quattrocentenario Chianti Classico

Past vintages of this wine have it recorded as an IGT Toscana. The 2007 Chianti Classico Riserva Quattrocentenario 1596 1996 is an appellation expression of 100% Sangiovese from Barberino Val d'Elsa. This is a wildly floral and feminine red wine with pressed rose petal, violet, dried herb, cured leather and dried tobacco leaf. The wine boasts that trademark sweetness with succulent berry flavors that is characteristic of this estate. This is an evolved wine that is better suited to near-term consumption.
