POMONA
Chianti Classico Riserva 2018

Spicy and brooding, the 2018 Chianti Classico Riserva shows off its depth with cherry liqueur, black licorice candy, lavender, and leather. It is medium to full-bodied, with ripe, present tannins and notes of black raspberry, dried sage, and warming baked earth. Its structure and savory herbal side beg to be served alongside a Florentine or rich cut of steak drizzled liberally with olive oil.
