  If only all Chiantis tasted this good
  Very aromatic nose - camphor, tobacco, wood shavings
  Bloody ripe fruit, cherries, tannins ripe and smooth but still plenty of bite, proper Chianti without the austerity, fruit ripe and sweet,
  all Sangiovese, no merlot here, I think there is some French oak but it's very well done, no vanilla, just aromatic woody notes.
  This is great, already mellow, one to drink now.
  £19 at Fortnums which isn't bad value at all
