Castello di Monsanto 2008 Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG From Tuscany, Italy

This Chianti Classico Reserva is a dry, flat and earthy Sangiovese; a totally competent, yet boring, wine. It holds up nicely to Osso Buco, yet there are no surprises (and for the money, there are considerably better new world red wines). This wine is enjoyable, but not worth buying twice.

Paid $20.99 at Petzinger's in Brooklyn
