Le Capitozze 2011

Chianti Classico Gran Selezione

The nose is relatively aromatic. It reveals notes of flowers (iris, violet) and slight notes of blackberry associated with hints of redcurrants jam, discreet hints of spices and a subtle hint of Sichuan pepper. The mouth is fruity, fine, mineral, nicely made (lace!), well-balanced and offers a fine acid frame, a nice roundness as well as suavity. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of juicy blackberry and cassis associated with slight hints of blueberry, crushed raspberry as well as a discreet hint of Sichuan pepper and subtle hints of spices. Good length. There is a very discreet hint of coconut on the finish.
