Wednesday, September 14, 2016 - Tasted blind. Free&Easy night at ESBK.
Appearance is clear, medium intensity, ruby colour. Legs.
Nose medium+ intensity, with aromas of earth, soy sauce, sweet toasty spices, red plum, sour red cherries, hints of barnyard earth. Developed.
On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol (13%), smooth resolved medium tannins, medium+ body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of earth, soy sauce, red plums, sour red cherries, sweet toasty spices. Medium finish.
Very good quality Chianti Classico. Aged for 12 months in barriques. Finish could be better though. Time to drink up, not for further ageing.
