Young Chianti wines have a fresh fruity somewhat sharp drink while older Riserva wines become more full bodied and soft. A Chianti Classico Riserva can age for quite a bit longer than a normal Classico, but be aware that the aging process can remove part of the fruity taste when the bottle is kept too long. Chianti en Chianti Classico both have the DOCG (Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita) status, the highest in Italy.
