  Red-black. Aroma of black cherry and tobacco. Oak and cherry flavours, with redcurrant and pomegranate prominent. Solid, tannic food wine, with balancing acidity. Very good.

  Cherry fruit, medium body for a Chianti, leans more new word with less old world funky/oaky though it’s still there nicely in the background.

  Been a year since I last tried this, and it has smoothed out a bit, but it’s still young, fresh Sangiovese. My gosh I love what this grape does in Tuscany. Bright acidity, crisp red fruit, finishing structure for around $20-$25. Such an easy choice.

  Bright cherry tones, fresh and with nice acidity. Short finish. Good chianti.

  This was really good. Fairly simple, soft, bright cherry, lighter style but well-balanced and delicious.
