RatingThe 2004 Chianti Classico La Casuccia (80% Sangiovese, 20% Merlot) is a massive, powerful wine. It presents an open-knit, super-ripe nose followed by layers of ripe dark blueberries, violets, licorice and toasted oak flavors on a big, structured frame, with outstanding length and a lingering suggestion of sweetness on the finish. It is the more accessible of the estate's top two selections in 2004. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2019. Robert Parker 92 points (Jun 2007)Blackberry and cigar box, with hints of raspberry. Full-bodied, with soft tannins and a medium finish. Drink now. 490 cases made.
