Lamole di Lamole 2004 Riserva (Chianti Classico)

Country: Italy / Riserva
Variety: Sangiovese Tuscany
Winery: Lamole di Lamole / Chianti Classico

Thinner and more traditional in style and appearance, this Riserva has nice balsam- and almond-like intensity. These qualities make it a perfect companion to pork with glazed onions or vegetables au gratin. It’s a bit thorny and nervous in the mouth—qualities that probably won’t be appreciated by those seeking soft, dense flavors.
