Castello di Cacchiano 2010 – Chianti Classico Riserva

The nose is fruity, relatively gourmand, fineley powerful and offers a fine concentration. It reveals notes of cherry, ripe strawberry and fine notes of blackberry jam associated with an earthy hint, raspberry jam and fine touches of spices. The palate is fruity, fluid, fine, silky, fat and offers a fine mineral frame and a nice roundness. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of raspberry jam and blackberry associated with fine notes of cassis cream, licorice, olive as well as slight hints of wild berries, slight notes of mocha, wood and notes of graphite. Tannins are fine and well-built. There is a very discreet saline hint on the finish. The finish is suave. Good length.
