Castello Sonnino Chianti Montespertoli 2010

Name:  Castello Sonnino Chianti Montespertoli 2010

Variety: Chianti Montespertoli
Year: 2010
Country: Italy
Region: Chianti
Price: $15
Wine Critic 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." 
-The Vintage Cellar
My review: This wine from Chianti had a little sweeter red fruit flavors than the Bolla Bardolina wine tried the same day.  It was a bit more bitter.  There was a definite toasty flavor with a bit of a dark chocolaty flavor on the finish.  I neither liked nor disliked this wine. 

This wine was not consumed with food.
