A bottle lost in the corner of my closet, er I mean cellar. Surprisingly good strong Chianti. Nice farmyard/earthy smell that opened up in 20-30 minutes to some nice herbs and berries. Typical short, dry Chianti finish. Tannins were muted.

Terroir-istes International - Italy, Chianti Classico (Rodwell House): Attractive bouquet of wafer biscuit, red cherry, macaroons, fresh oak (sauna wood), cigar box and soy. A thick texture with lively fresh acidity, good depth of flavour and well balanced. Flavours of marmite, sour cherry, vegetal and tilled earth add complexity and the oak gives a wood smoke element. Good length, delightful.
