The gorgeous inky/ruby/purple-colored 1999 Chianti Classico Casasilia boasts great intensity, superb richness, and a beautiful perfume of licorice, white flowers, black fruits, and earth-like aromas. Full-bodied, pure, and layered, with no hard edges, this is a seamless classic from a winery capable of producing spectacular reds. Drink it over the next 7-10 years.
