Description

95 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2006 Chianti Classico Riserva Vigna del Sorbo is seriously dark, rich and intense. Dark cherries, tobacco, herbs and minerals come together in this brooding, weighty Vigna del Sorbo. Today the wine comes across as completely closed and folded in on itself, but with time it should emerge as a beauty. The elegance of the superb 2004 seems missing, and this looks to be an especially concentrated vintage for this wine. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2026. My visit to Fontodi last year was fascinating, as I spent several hours with proprietor Giovanni Manetti and oenologist Franco Bernabei tasting through multiple barrels of all of the estate'ss wines. (8/ 2009)

95 points Wine Spectator
Full-bodied, displaying an amazing concentration of fruit and big, chewy tannins. Velvety and chewy, yet there’s so much underneath. Layered and impressive. What a great wine. (8/ 2010)
