Thursday, November 19, 2009 - Chianti (Waterford Wine Co., Milwaukee): minimal amount of new French oak, 5-10%, I am told. alcohol level is up .5% over the estate. high toned dark cherry. lightly showing some oak zest on the nose a la cinnamon. ben suggests a touch raisin, buy i'm finding it more a deep ghostly fruit note (see - barbaresco deep sweetness) true substance to this wine.
5 hours in...back to thst cherry fruit.sweet cherry. Riserva shows on the palate with much bigger oak treatment present.
