Tasting- Castello Sonnino Chianti Montespertoli 2010

Name:   Castello Sonnino Chianti Montespertoli
Variety:  Blend
Region: Chianti
Country: Italy 
Year: 2010
Price: $15

Winery Review: A blend of Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Trebbiano and Malvasia del Chianti. Rich and modern, with a dark, saturated color and aromas of graham cracker and lemon rind. A juicy palate packed with plum and raspberry is carried by a creamy texture that’s rather toasty in terms of flavor. The finish is round, full and chocolaty.

My Review: The wine had a very intense red, almost purple color to it. The taste had a kind of mocha chocolate taste to it. It was very spicy and hot. Did not really enjoy this wine.
