I'm afraid this wine has seen it's day. Brick red coloring with little or no nose to speak of. An easy drinking, simple wine. Food-friendly, at least friendly to the pizza we had for dinner. Medium body. Unassuming and a very average Chianti. One that probably should have been opened 2 or 3 years ago.

Brick red with yellow colours on the rim. Dust on the nose. Plum, pepper with lively acidity. Medium to full bodied. Medium-long finish with herbal notes and tobacco. Tasted somehow best immediately after opening. Very food-friendly.

ABS SP Mondovino (ABS-SP): Tradition and fidelity to it's appelation. Elegant and a mineral note from it's terroir. Great acidity. It's an ok chianti, no big deal but very good with food.

1999 was a strong vintage but this wine doesn't really show it. A really average Chianti. Was pleasant to drink but a poor value ... lots of better Chianti's at this price point.

Noget lukket, måske potentiale, men ikke sikkert, at der er frugt nok. Smagte godt, men kunne ikke leve op til prisen. Så en meget positiv omtale af 2000 - kunne være sjovt at prøve den.

Dark and clear. Good legs. Herby, deep red fruits. Slightly medicinal, raisiny. Interesting. Zingy, good attack. Nice fruity, round mouth. Bitter chocolate finish. Quite new world. Tannins med., young wine. VG

Much better to be had for this price. Very average for a Sangiovese wine.
