1 TASTING REPORT: CHIANTI OFFERS GREAT VALUE December 19th, 2011 This report on Chianti from 2007 Chianti Classico riserva to 2010 Chianti comes just at the right time at the height of Christmas shopping. There are plenty of great wines with high scores as well as great bargains in outstanding ratings. In other words, buy these wines and save money for shopping. I am a big fan of Chianti in general. I think that many top Chianti Classico and Chianti Rufina riservas and single vineyard wines are as good as top Brunello. So if you like the racy, firm yet fruity style of top Sangiovese, you are going to like them. And the 2007 vintage is a great year for them. I am slightly torn between which is better: 2006 or My opinion changes. Try to get your hands on some of the 2007 Mazzei Chianti Classico Ser Lapo Riserva and you will see what I mean. I scored it 95 points and it shows loads of subtle fruit and rich and velvety tannins. It s a wine to enjoy now or age. The 2007 San Fabiano Calcinaia Cellole Riserva is similar in structure but with riper and slightly more earthy character. I rated it 94 points. They should both be around $40 a bottle. If you want great value, look at many of the younger Chiantis in the report such as the 2009s or 2010s. Many should be from about $10 to $15 a bottle and I rated numerous wines 90 points. As I write this, I am thinking about drinking one of these wines in my warm kitchen in with a roaring fire and some pasta with porcini. Unfortunately, I am in Los Angeles for the holidays. It will have to wait until January. Also tasted, but not receiving marks of 90 points or more: 2008 Lanciola Chianti Classico Le Masse di Greve 2009 Castello di Querceto Chianti Classico 2009 Badia a Coltibuono Chianti Classico 2010 Piazzano Chianti 2009 Rocca delle Macie Chianti Classico 2008 Pieve di Spaltenna Chianti Classico 2008 San Fabiano Calcinaia Chianti Classico 2008 Le Corti Chianti Classico 2010 Poggio Salvi Chianti Colli Senesi 2009 Tolaini Chianti Classico Riserva 2008 Rocca delle Macie Chianti Classico Riserva di Fizzano 2009 Fattoria Le Fonti Chianti Classico 2006 Il Molino di Grace Chianti Classico Selezione Il Margone Riserva 2009 Usiglian del Vescovo Chianti 2009 Malenchini Chianti Colli Fiorentini 2009 Poggio Scalette Chianti Classico 2009 Colle Bereto Chianti Classico 2009 Straccali Chianti Classico Straccali 2009 Tenuta Bibbiano Chianti Classico Montornello 2009 Lanciola Chianti Colli Fiorentini 2008 Castello d'albola Chianti Classico 2007 Castello d'albola Chianti Classico Riserva 2007 Villa La Pagliaia Chianti Classico Riserva 2009 Fontaleoni Chianti Colli Senesi 2008 Giacomo Mori Chianti Riserva Castelrotto 2010 Danzante Chianti 2010 Fattoria del Cerro Chianti Colli Senesi 2009 Borgo Salcetino Chianti Classico 2008 Castello della Paneretta Chianti Classico 2010 Poggio Bonelli Chianti Villachigi 2010 Badia a Coltibuono Chianti Cetamura 2009 Coltibuono Chianti Classico 2009 Castello di Farnetella Chianti Colli Senesi 2009 Antinori Chianti Classico P ppoli 2008 Panizzi Chianti Colli Senesi Vertunno Riserva 2007 Castello di Cacchiano Chianti Classico 2008 Conte Lodovico Guicciardini Chianti Colli Fiorentini 2008 Il Molino di Grace Chianti Classico 2010 Marchesi de' Frescobaldi Chianti Castiglioni 2007 Borgo Salcetino Chianti Classico Lucarello Riserva 2009 Collazzi Chianti Classico I Bastioni 2009 Castelvecchio Chianti Santa Caterina 2009 Sette Ponti Chianti Vigna de Pallino
