Villa Maisano 1997 Riserva Sangiovese (Chianti Classico)

  1. $27
A very pleasing marriage of high-quality fruit and oak. Cloves, cocoa and licorice accent the dark plum aromas. Chocolate and hints of black tea complement the fruit, the palate is medium-full and supple, even creamy. Soft tannins and cherry fruit with coffee-chocolate accents mark the long finish. Best after 2003.  — W.E.  (4/1/2001)

Villa Maisano 1997 Questo Sangiovese (Chianti Classico)

  1. $30
Again a good melding of fruit and oak. The nose of this single-vineyard wine displays ripe cherry fruit, cinnamon and clove spice accents and a unique mint note. Balanced and lithe on the tongue, its dried plum and spice flavors play out attractively on the finish.  — W.E.  (4/1/2001)

Villa Maisano 1997 Sangiovese (Chianti Classico)

  1. $15
The berry fruit here bears an herb-floral note on the nose, and opens to a light, supple palate of cherries accented by herb and chocolate accents. The finish shows good fruit and decent length, if slightly edgy tannins.  — W.E.  (4/1/2001)
