Tenuta di Nozzole La Forra 2021 – Chianti Classico Riserva

The wine has a ruby color of medium intensity. The nose is lively, tangy and slightly bitter. It expresses notes of crushed raspberry, fresh strawberry, blueberry, red cherry and morello cherry in the background, combined with spicy (liquorice, cardamom, nutmeg), herbal (blackcurrant leaf, Earl Grey tea), toast (toasted almond, coffee, chocolate), floral (peony) and wild mint aromas. The palate is dense and enveloping, slightly bitter (bergamot). It also expresses notes of wild strawberry, crushed raspberry, morello cherry and blueberry, combined with touches of blackberry, liquorice, coffee, chocolate, toasted almond and peony. The tannins are supple, fine, well-built. Good length, delicious and fresh with a nice acidity and bitterness.
