Fattoria di Basciano 2001 Riserva Sangiovese (Chianti Rufina)

  1. $22
Deceptively soft and easy, this creamy-textured wine also boasts a sense of wiry power underneath briary, blackberry-scented fruit. It's soft enough to drink on its own, yet the inner strength will allow it to pair with assertive flavors as well.  — W.E.  (4/1/2005)
