Best bottle in case so far. Dark Red. High-toned varnish aroma, which faded. Whiff of truffles. Lovely rich fruitcake and cherry flavours, woody smooth tannins. Beautifully mature. End note of ripe, fresh cherries. Lovely.

Still drinking really well, although probably nearing the end of its peak drinking window. Drunk from magnum, which may explain why my bottle still had plenty of life left in contrast to the bottles opened by other reviewers. Opened about 6 hours before drinking. A beautiful Chianti.

Faded and colour showing age; forward cherry mash and forest floor notes, mushrooms; sweet cherry palate, tannins resolved; drinking perfectly now.

From magnum this was bright and lively. Red-fruited and sinewy. Great food wine.
