Principe Corsini, Chianti Classico (Tuscany, Italy) 2015

Jan 1, 2019

By Michael Apstein

 Principe Corsini’s 2015 Chianti Classico exemplifies why Chianti Classico in general is so popular.  Bright and fresh, it delivers the ideal combination of red cherry-like fruitiness with haunting earthy, “not just fruit” flavors that give it complexity and character.  Lively acidity and smooth tannins make it the “go-to” red wine now.  This has a seriousness that its price belies.
