Castello di Monastero 1997

by Robert Whitley | Mar 9, 2001
Castello di Monastero 1997 Chianti Classico Riserva, Italy ($24), has all the earmarks of the new generation of wines from Chianti Classico, including the whiff of spicy French barrique (small oak barrels). This area that once produced light, thin wines of dubious character now goes toe-to-toe with the finest wines of the world and often wins.
