1999 Castellani Chianti Classico Riserva Campomaggio
Sangiovese
Score: 71

Good cork, nice and dense so I was really expecting a great wine. I was so very wrong. Good floral on the nose, again just a tease. No fruit at all in the palatte, just harsh bitter tastes. Tried decanting for about an hour, no real improvement. Maybe this wine was good 4 years ago, but it is past its peak and is maybe fit for cooking, but I doubt it. A terrible example of Sangiovese wine. The worse CCR ‘Chianti Classico Riserva’ I have ever had.
