Such great value, and drinking so well already, the nose is dark and ripe with berries and a touch of cured meats. The palette is powerful and rich with smooth sweet fruits and a dark ripe finish.
Violets and leather on the nose with dark cherries and wild raspberry. The palette is fairly tannic, but the tannins are very fine grained and this will probably cellar a bit longer than the average 2010 Chianti Classico. There is a good show of fairly powerful fruit and spice but the finish remains delicate and mineral driven.
A cough mixture and dark fruit nose shows how serious this classico is with a delicate blackberry jam and oak balance. The palette starts with intense sour cherry with bold tannin grips and a spice finish.

A nose of white peach, nuts and minerals with a touch of spicy oak. The palette is silky with an acidic bite, ripe fruit and dry finish.
