Chianti Classico Riserva Poggio a' Frati has outstanding complexity, structure and elegance. It has an intense, bright red color and a rich aroma of small red fruits and spices. It has enveloping, complex and lingering aromas that highlight the cherry and ripe Marasca cherry with a pleasant spicy and balsamic finish. Bottle aging gives it an exquisite elegance and mellow flavor.
Pair with important roasts, game, mature cheeses and vegetable soups.

The 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva Poggio a'Frati is quite imposing in its first impression. Black cherry, gravel, incense, tobacco, licorice, menthol and dried herbs confer somber intensity, an impression reinforced by the wine's imposing tannins. I would give this a year or two in bottle to soften, but even so, readers should expect a virile Riserva for the dinner table.
