  Rouge grenat, un peu orangé sur les côtés.
  Fruits rouges murs au nez avec un peu d'épices et de notes balsamique.
  Très délicat en bouche mais très long, texture onctueuse, bonne acidité, tanins faibles, assez expressif en fruits dès l'ouverture, bon seul autant qu'en mangeant à mon avis.
  Dans une belle période, prochaine dans 2-4 ans.

  A rich, full bodied modern style Chianti with abundant oak and moderate tannins. Good value and well made if you like this more modern style.

  Ruby on the rim and opaque plum core. An initial nose of black cherry and graphite, but as the wine opened, black plum, roasted tomato, and mushroom joined in creating a chorus for the senses. The finish is long with mocha. This is a wine that shows best with food. However, the nose is so inviting that a few minutes with it is worth the wait of a taste. Some slight sediment. 11-14% alc. With chicken parmesan. 03.2323. Recommended.

  PnP’d & enjoyed with Sunday Sauce. Cherries, earth, vanilla & green pepper flavors. Earthy nose. Two bottle left in cellar - DRINK OR HOLD.
