Fruit and flower bomb for sure! Those features never fade enough. I’m headed to that town next year and I’ll look for a blend with less Grenache! Or I’ll stay In Seguret instead of Sablet.

Bought at a bargain market for a “bargain” $7. I didn’t know what Chianti Superiore was, but now I do. Anything in the general Chianti region outside of Chianti Classico area, plus a certain minimal aging requirement. This had a Brett smell (not too strong) upon opening, which dissipated in a few minutes. Nice deep color. Good hefty body. Not much aroma, but a very very decent everyday drinker. I like it. My wife doesn’t.
