Casadi Monte Le Capitozze 2020 – Chianti Classico Riserva

The wine has a medium-intensity ruby color. On the nose, it is reserved and requires aeration. It then expresses aromas of tangy fruits (red cherry, cranberries, fresh raspberry, dried raspberry, crushed blueberry), combined with a touch of smoke, roasting (coffee, cocoa), spices (liquorice, nutmeg, white pepper) and aromatic herbs (rosemary, a touch of peppermint and fresh bay leaf). The palate is tangy, fresh and lively. The attack is chiseled, with notes of red fruits and a good bitterness (red cherry, cranberries, raspberry, red currants), associated with herbal touches (blackcurrant leaf, a hint of dried pine needles, bay leaf), spices (licorice, white pepper and roasted notes (coffee, smoke, cocoa and a hint of toasted almond). The finish is savory, tangy, with a good bitterness and the smoky side of bergamot. Tension, liveliness and a certain concentration.
