About This Wine:

Chianti may well be the single best-known wine in the world - historically celebrated, universally revered and enjoyed over centuries. Produced from select grapes grown in the "Classico" region of Chianti between Siena and Florence, this aristocratic Tuscan wine has reached new heights in Banfi Chianti Classico Riserva. After aging two years in Slavonian oak casks, this elegant, well-balanced wine has flavors of vanilla, cocoa and spice.

An honored red wine, Banfi Chianti Classico Riserva is a fine gourmet accompaniment to red roasts, pastas and cheese.

Grape Varieties: Sangiovese, Canaiolo Nero, Cabernet Sauvignon

89 "Banfi is best-known for its superb Brunello, but it's also dabbling quite successfully in the Chianti Classico region. What makes Banfi's efforts in Chianti truly appealing is the modest pricing for exceptional Chianti. The '03 Riserva comes in under $20, which is about half what you can expect to pay for one of the more established name producers of the region. Though '03 was a difficult vintage because of extremely warm temperatures, Banfi's Chianti Classico Riserva exhibits good balance, beautifully ripe, supple black cherry aroma and it finishes nicely on the back end."
