88 PTS WILFRED WONG. A mouthful of deliciously ripe fruit, the oak-textured '05 Arceno Chianti Classico comes to the fore with pleasing red and black fruit flavors accented with a hint oak.

Floral notes of violets and irises. Palate of dark plums and black cherries with a hint of mushrooms and velvet tannins. 14% ABV.
