Marchesi Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva 2000

Thick, inky and concentrated in appearance, this 90-10 Sangiovese-Cabernet Sauvignon blend presents a vast and varied aromatic portfolio that includes black cherry fruit, graphite, leather, some barnyard for a complex and intense whole. It’s a big and powerful wine that maintains its finesse and elegance. Score – 91. (Monica Larner, Wine Enthusiast, Oct. 1, 2006)
