Parker about Chianti Classico Riserva 2001
The 2001 Chianti Classico Riserva, essentially a cuvee made for the American market, expresses the classic red currants, licorice, and tobacco of Felsina's part of the Chianti Classico appellation in an earthy, muscular format which is a bit slow to unwind.

Chianti Classico Riserva 2001
The Chianti Classico Riserva 2001 from Fèlsina is an outstanding wine from the heart of Tuscany. Fèlsina is a renowned producer known for its traditional approach to Chianti Classico and its meticulous winemaking that reflects the region's terroir.
The 2001 vintage was an excellent year in Tuscany, characterized by favorable weather conditions that allowed for optimal ripening of the Sangiovese grapes. This grape variety, which makes up the majority of the blend, gives the wine its characteristic acidity, freshness, and longevity.
In the glass, the Chianti Classico Riserva 2001 presents a deep ruby red color with garnet reflections, indicating its maturity. The nose unfolds a complex bouquet of cherries, red berries, and violets, accompanied by nuances of tobacco, leather, and spices developed through aging in oak barrels. On the palate, the wine displays a balanced structure with ripe tannins, lively acidity, and impressive depth. The aromas of ripe red fruits are complemented by earthy and spicy notes, culminating in a long, elegant finish.
