Very nice colour not too dark. Pleasant nose with fresh fruit and spicy due to the add of Merlot to the San Giovese. In mouth great fine wine not too strong.Not so much tanin but right acidity. This wine could be drink now up to 2017!!! A very good Chianti following the tradition. Pleasant. Purchase at a very good offer make it even more enjoyable.

Very dark colour. Strong nose with deep tanin but very nice with stone fruit. In mouth, it is still a young but drinkable wine. Secondary aroma! A bit modern style with a lack of finest to fully reach my expectations. Drink now to 2020.

I was a big moment to try such a celebrity wine despite the millesime which isn't the famous. Colour was smooth but still very nice. Nose smelt good and the wine openning after 1 hour. Fine, perfect balance of fruit and tertiary aroma. In mouth, very exceptionnal wine, fine & strong with lot of compelxity. Evolving! stay for a long time after drinking. I agree I was certainly influence by the prestige of the bootle, however it was a great moment. enjoy
