2018 Castello di Monsanto Il Poggio Chianti Classico Gran Selezione [WS96][JS96][JD95+] Spirits_Sake The situation turns a littleProducer: Castello di Monsanto Region: Chianti Classico, Chianti, Tuscany, Italy Varietal: Sangiovese Year: 2018 Wine Spectator, 96 Points "A muscular red, with iron, almond, tar and underbrush aromas, which lend a savory element to the core of cherry and blackberry fruit. Dense, dusty tannins and a vein of mineral lend austerity as this red announces "hands off" on the tightly wound finish. Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino." James Suckling, 96
