Community Tasting Note

rikipedia Likes this wine:

Monday, May 7, 2012 - Terroir-istes International - Italy, Chianti Classico (Rodwell House): Medium blood red towards a narrow orange rim.
The nose is exuberant with red cherries, Victoria plum, tinned prune, tilled soil, fresh leather and heady, intense notes. seems to get better in the glass.
Some felt the entry a little reductive at first, but to me it opened quickly to reveal an expressive range of attractive flavours. Deeply concentrated, full-bodied, the wine is filled with redcurrants, pressed red flowers, plum and bing cherry, again with a twist of vanilla.
Well-balanced with medium length, richness is offset by a lively acidity made in a more modern, approachable style. Flattering to deceive? Perhaps lacks a little depth.
