2004 Renzo Masi Chianti Riserva
This was nice little chianti I found, priced around $14 dollars. While
it might have been a little more new world in style, it was a
wonderfully simple and all-together enjoyable wine. Made in a richer
style, with bigger fruit, the wine had a dark color, and a floral nose.
The taste was full of earth, cherries, and lavender. There was a good
backbone of acidity running through the wine and the tannins were
fairly noticeable. Contrasting with the dryness however was a ton of
big fruit giving this wine a huge presence. Overall I crowd-pleaser.
