Saturday, February 10, 2024 - Excellent bottle of mature chianti. Very nice nose, but the real welcome was great big "Hello" with the delivery of pepper and spice on first sip, and some chewy tannin, which quickly rounded out. Medium finish. Shared with good friends who concurred in the assessment. Served with homemade stuffed peppers that had been given a slight kick of chili sauce, so the wine's pepper and spice and mature fruit was a great fit. Although this wine is almost 15 years old, it's definitely not on the down slope and seems to have quite a bit of life to go. Glad I still have one more bottle to share with more good friends.
