  1 of many bottles bought on Auction. Mature Chianti with a slightly pruned fruit and nice finish. Great QPR and still drinking well. Just purchased 3 bottles of the 2016 vintage and will cellar 2 of them for at least years based on the 2008 vintage.

  5th of 6 bottles, last tasted almost 2 yrs ago. Good chianti, drank with pizza over a few nights. Drink up.

  Last bottle. Terrific CCR. Delicate, but delicious cherry fruit. Harmonious and long.
