Castello di Monsanto Chianti Classico Riserva 2013 Review

Though there’s an immediate musty note on the nose, it blows off after a few moments to reveal a complete, classic Chianti Classico. Medium-bodied, with bright acidity and a pop of sour cherry, canned tomatoes, and oregano, it’s solid and versatile.
