Criterion Collection, Chianti Classico DOCG (Tuscany, Italy) 2011

Jun 1, 2016

By Rich Cook

Here’s a traditionally styled Chianti that’s fun and fresh, featuring lively cherry, spice and sage aromas and flavors and the acidity to cut spicy red-sauced pasta dishes.  Add a nice price and you can’t go wrong.  A Platinum Award winner at the 2016 San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge.
