Here’s a Vino Nobile Riserva (made with 100% Prugnolo Gentile) that shows the integrity of fruit of this good vintage. The wine shows harmony and a nice balance between fruit flavors, spice, acidity and structure. It’s not very intense, but is composed and well proportioned.  — M.L.  (11/1/2009)

Gattavecchi 1998 Sangiovese (Chianti Colli Senesi)

  1. $11
Possesses some decent black-cherry aromas and flavors with leathery, earthy accents, but also a sour streak and a sulfurous note that refused to yield. The wine finishes dry, with some of the astringency shown by many 1998s.  — W.E.  (4/1/2001)
