2007 Badia a Coltibuono Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG, Tuscany, Italy 750ml

The 2007 Chianti Classico Riserva shows gorgeous balance in a delicate, perfumed expression of ripe red fruit. It is a relatively subdued 2007, with less of the opulence of most wines in this vintage. Here the sense of proportion is much more classic, with pretty scents of crushed flowers that round out the finish.
