Opens a bit too acid, and somehow slightly disjointed. Better with food the first night. Left on counter with a Repour overnight. Next day, the balance was considerably better; it was a real pleasure to drink. Very well balanced, good length, a classic Chianti flavor profile. So I'd advise a decant before drinking this.

moderate depth of color, purple rim. aromatically shy with some nice mixed berry fruits and flowers... no barrique. on the palate high acidity, moderate weight on the mid palate, low to moderate amount of tannins, lowish alcohol. balanced wine with average length, intensity, complexity. simple and fresh, "good" wine, drink now.

Nice and fresh chianti. Juicy cherry, flowers and herbs. High acidity with slight bitter finish.
