[ Home > Wines > Italy > Italy > San Fabiano Chianti Classico Riserva 2004 ]
This is a refined and wonderfully structured Chianti Classico Riserva that is brick-red and displays impressive aromas of crushed cherries with hints of cinnamon and tanned leather. Full-bodied with lush silky tannins and a solid core of ripe black fruit. The long finish is accented by rosemary and tobacco flavors.
Enjoy with grilled veal chop with balsamic glaze, mushrooms, truffle pastas or risottos, grilled steak and lamb with rosemary or venison tenderloin in a pomegranate sauce.

Untitled
"Ripe blackberry notes, with vanilla and cedar, follow through to a full-bodied palate, with chewy tannins and a long finish. Needs some time to come together, but this structured for the vintage. Best after 2008. 2,830 cases made. –JS" -Rated 90, Wine Spectator
Untitled
"Blueberry, sweet cherry and forest fruit set the tone, followed by a distinctly perfumed aroma. Musky, spicy favors appear in the mouth and seem to reinforce the firm tannins and a slightly sour finish. — M.L. (11/1/2007)" -Rated 89, Wine Enthusiast
Untitled
"Oak and fruit immediately. Very firm punch of oak, alcohol, ripe cherry, berry fruit. Tannic but balanced, big but not awkward. Drink 2013-18." -Rated 5 Stars, Decanter
