Santa Margherita Lamole di Lamole Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG, 2015, Chianti

£20.99

Lamole di Lamole Chianti Classico Riserva, with the extra ageing, comes to a longer finish and a more robust wine, that the stunning Lamole di Lamole Chianti Classico we stock, both are excellent choices and offer a very enjoyable sip.

After search long and hard for a Chianti that was both excellent values and to the quality we look for in a wine, we were introduced to Lamole di Lamole Chianti Classico by a friend who visited the chianti festival a few years back. After spending a lot of time in Italy and travelling around Tuscany tasting many Chianti, but struggling to commit to one myself. I tried both this and the Chianti Classico Reserve and it was a done deal. Both are excellent quality, with lots of red juicy fruits, just enough acidity to balance everything out and a long finish that a lot of Chianti's don't have.

Production area
Lamole, Vigneto Il Prato and Le Masse

Varieties
Sangiovese, Canaiolo Nero

Description
A broad yet restrained bouquet, in which the fruit (fresh plums) is dappled with floral tones of violets, sylvan ones of ferns, bark and humus, and underlying hints of iodine. The overall sensation is one of total control, class and charisma. Mineral nuances on the finish.

Food Pairings
Not only the “usual” Florentine steak or rosticceria of pork. Our Riserva has vigour and intensity in spades, and can be matched wonderfully with lamb, pigeon, offal recipes, braised meats and stews; and, should one wish, it can also stand up to the powerful aromas of truffle.
