...5 of us tasted 6 chiantis or sangioveses from any vintage. Low points wins. A 2009 Castello di Bossi Chianti Classico for $20 back then won with 9pts. The next two tied with 15 points and are still available: 2012 Nozzole Chianti Classico Reserva $18 (I didn't care for this one) 2012 Viano Sangiovese Reserva (Martinez, CA) $18 (my #2) The rest are not available and the #6 wine had 24pts. Check out the Viano. |
