Needs a bit of time to open up and in general, it is a bit old. There is still a slight touch of fruit and the best part is the piercing acidity. Lovely aged wine but it would have been better a few years ago.

What a great wine. The wine is still not at the top. Its incredible balanced, and the tannins are so beautifull. Tasted together with among others Flaccianello 2004. The Flaccianello was again disapointing and beated by lenght by the Gratius.

This is perfect Chianti - even if it is a Super-Tuscan. Pure Sangiovese, rich in black fruits with slight sourness. Rather extravagant for the spaghetti bolognaise but who cares? Delicious.

Nose old in the beginning, but after 10 minutes it came.
Completeky fresh. Great fruit. Never tasted a flaccianello so old so fresh.

I would say a bit beyond its prime. Still drinking fairly well. Tile red in color, medium body and pretty good finish. A bit spicy yet. Nice wine.
