The 2004 Chianti Classico Riserva Vigna Casi is an earthy, powerful wine imbued with dark cherries, tar, licorice and toasted oak. The wine needs another year or two in bottle to settle down, but this is a gorgeous, layered wine of considerable potential, with pretty notes of sweetness that linger on the long finish. The Vigna Casi is 85% Sangiovese, 5% Colorino and 10% Merlot aged in medium-sized barrels. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2019. This year I was particularly impressed with the top bottlings at Castello di Meleto, a medium-sized property located in Gaiole. Oenologists Federico Cerelli and Stefano Chioccioli have turned out two gems from the outstanding 2004 vintage in their Chianti Classico Riserva Vigna Casi and Rainero.
