Fattoria del Cerro, Chianti Colli Senesi (Tuscany, Italy) 2011

Dec 10, 2013

By Michael Franz

This is a pure, rather delicate wine that will prove pleasing to almost any palate, yet it is hardly non-descript, as the layered aromas and flavors offer an unusual degree of complexity for the price.  The fruit recalls both red and black cherries, with pleasantly earthy accents and fine-grained tannins that frame the fruit without shortening the finish.
