Community Tasting Note

eboracum Likes this wine:

Sunday, August 17, 2014 - This 2000 was exceptional rich and ripe for Chianti with medium/full body and complexity with rich red fruit and English fruit cake touches. It was less tangy and smoother in acidity and structure than in most years but had enough of all to avoid flabbiness and remain a fine wine. Did I detect faint hints of cabbage presaging imminent break-up? In any event, I don't think there is any point in not drinking these up because IMO they'll never get better. My last bottle so I'll never be able to test this but I have 4 01s which I hope have more backbone.
