PnP that improved, if slightly, with each successive glass. Good soil, red fruit, loam and forest notes predominate. Medium-bodied, avg+ acidity, with good freshness and focus. A consistently good entry-level CC. Now and the next several years. Easily recommended+
Medium ruby red in color. Fragrant & attractive nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, plums & strawberries with overtones of earthy/dusty & floral notes with dried herbs, spices, minerals & a hint of cedar. Medium bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, plums & strawberries with dried herbs, minerals/earthy & a slight hint of oak. Lingering finish. Quite accessible & drinks well at present with decanting & airing but has the structure to continue to develop further with additional aging.

Good hearty quaffer! Gave this two round trips through an aerating decanter, result was an open, nicely rounded wine. Good flavors, no flaws, decent price:performer that's ready to enjoy - especially while watching the Giro d'Italia.

Popped and poured; no formal notes. Cherries, bergamot, clay with medium structure and medium finish. A charming, more than serviceable Chianti paired with a delicious impromptu Monday night dinner at Via Farina in Omaha.
