Really not much nose nor flavor after it’s been open 1/2 hour. Unimpressive. Both tasters same feedback. Wouldn’t add this to the cellar.

Intense ruby red with only subtle hints of garnet at the edge. On the nose, it presents a fruity bouquet with notes of raspberry, sour cherry, tobacco, and cocoa. A greenish hue, initially interpreted by all as clear evidence of the presence of international grape varieties, instead turned out to be attributed to the inclusion of 20% Malvasia Nera. On the palate, it boasts a pleasing savoriness and a significant entry, balanced by refined and elegant tannins.


Rosso rubino intenso con riflessi solamente accennati di un granato sull'unghia. Al naso fruttato, con note di lampone, marasca, tabacco e cacao. Una tonalità verde, più erbacea, che avevamo tutti individuato come chiara evidenza della presenza di vitigni internazionali, si è invece rivelata essere dovuta alla presenza di un 20% di malvasia nera. Al palato bella la sapidità e l'ingresso importante ma controbilanciato da tannini raffinati ed eleganti.

Opened on a Friday. Sour cherry, strong earth notes though elusive - comes on strong and then hides away from your nose, probably because of the blend of merlot, which gave a very plush and soft mouthfeel. Other darkish colored fruits. Good to drink now. Notes vanished after in decanter for 4 hours, but it was a good thing we only decanted 1/3 and drank most of it.

Wonderful age and sensibility alone, and a wonderfully matched food wine. Paired with past carbonara, showing nice backbone and strength. Wonderful punch against the full decadent carbonara with black pepper spice in the pasta. This wine complimented the pasta without being overrun. Wonderful.

Still very ruby red in colour at 7 years old. Similarly still young on the palate, with strong spine. Big and quite juicy front palate with blackberry flavour. Finish is long and dry. Enjoyed with tuscan pigeon and lamb.

9/16/2023 - winenot519 Likes this wine: 91 points

Vibrant ruby core transitions to a wide meniscus with clear edges. On the nose, ripe and dried red fruits with earthy backbone. Cherry, stewed raspberry, roasted tomato, and portobello mushroom. (Also picking up notes of salted, air popped popcorn and dried straw.) Medium bodied with firm acidity, grippy tannins, and moderate alcohol. Red cherry, dried cranberry, and aromatic herbs. Finish is bone dry with red berry and dried herbs lasting long after each sip.

Bright ruby with large copper meniscus. Toasted almond and lightly burnt popcorn kernel wrapped around a muted red fruit core of raspberry, blackberry, and roasted tomato. Medium plus body with well balanced acidity, moderate alcohol, and finely integrated tannins. On the palate, cranberry, plum, almond, and fall spice. Finish is supple and moderate length with concentrated red berries and lingering spice.

Deep, concentrated ruby core transitions to a medium copper rim. Nose of dried fruit, crushed berries, dried herbs, and spice. Medium bodied with balanced acidity and alcohol with soft, structured tannins. Barnyard, lavender, dried fig, cranberry, and fennel. Lengthy finish is accentuated by generous spice and herbs.

Fine smooth fruity rustic Chianti Classico from Gaiole in the heart of the Chianti area. Well balance and mature and of course a strong match with pasta Bolognese. The black rooster did a fine job!

Tuscany July 2023; 6/28/2023-7/5/2023 (Tuscany, Italy): Beautiful nose, floral, olive, tart cherry and red fruits. Very silky on the palate, the age coming through in many ways. Not a big wine by any stretch but very elegant.

Took about 30 minutes in the decanter to open. This IGT from Chianti region was different than any others I've had and I learned after the fact that it is because it is 20% Malvasia Nera behind the 80% Sangio. The tobacco and slight touch of bitter chocolate must have been from the Malvasia Nera as was a different layer to the traditional Sangio profile. A very interesting wine that after 90 minutes still was not yet fully smoothed over and the tannins were present. I'd come back to this one in a few years and hope some more evolution and softness really makes this show extremely well.

Can't say it's bad, but not good either, simple if I may, red fruits and some sweet spice and oakiness, I would expect more at this price point. Much better with food though. That's the second Merlot + Sangiovese blend I had tried recently, both not really palatable to me, so it may be my own discretion, but still, that's my honest opinion.

Excellent food wine. Nice berry flavors are balanced out by a bit of tannin and quite a bit more acidic structure than one might expect. Opened well over several hours of drinking. It doesn’t feel like there’s much of a hurry to this—that acidity should hold up for several more years.

Medium ruby color. Fresh aromas of cherry, blackcurrant and some wet earth. Full bodied with smooth, mouth coating tannins and fresh acidity. A long finish that remains fresh.

Quite smooth, perhaps a tad too much to retain my interest.

Thanks to our somm buddy Nick, I hunted down this wine and enjoyed it tremendously one evening in Siena, Tuscany.

50&50 is a blend of 50% Sangiovese and 50% Merlot. In fact this modern icon was born from the friendship which of the former owners of Avignonesi (Merlot) in Montepulciano, and Capannelle (Sangiovese) in Chianti Classico, between beautiful Florence and stunning Siena.

Purchased this at a really nice and well stocked wine shop in a back alley, Il Bargello at Via di Città, 55, 53100 Siena, with an English speaking Sommelier-level staff, and paid about USD 110 for this bottle.

Ripe red fruits on the nose with fresh vanilla, then cassis notes with a long finish. Limited run 21 K bottles only, wonderful!
