Salcheto’s 2010 Chianti Colli Senesi is a fresh, vinous red bursting with sweet red fruit. This harmonious, entry-level bottling is best suited for near-term drinking. The 2010 is one of the better vintages of the Chianti Colli Senesi I can remember tasting from Salcheto. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2014. Importer: Bedford International, Larchmont, NY; tel. (914) 833-2725

An extremely fruity red, reminiscent of carbonic maceration, evoking raspberry, cherry and tobacco flavors. Very Sangiovese, with a firm, slightly astringent finish. Drink now through 2013. 4,000 cases made, 500 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Chianti Colli Senesi Select to Add
