Community Tasting Note

Thursday, December 22, 2011 - A very decent entry level chianti classico and a good QPR wine at the $20 / bottle price point. Decanted for an hour and definitely could stand even more. Nose a bit reticent with red fruit, a hint of violet and spices. Medium bodied, light purple, good balance and well structured with surprising acidity but not overly tannic - probably 3-5 years more of cellaring left, not built for the real long haul. Plum, black pepper, earth with more vegetal notes developing on the aftertaste which was quite short. I do recommend this wine for what it is.
