  A great weekday Chianti. Simple with good levels of acidity and cherry notes peaking through. Good value and should have no problem drinking well for the next 2-5 years.

  Dark and interesting. Better with air. Top quality wine for a good price. Really enjoyable.

  Austere. A nose akin to valpolicella rather than Chianti. Nutty, dark fruit, leather, tobacco and hints of tartness and smoke. Perhaps entering into closed phase. Surprisingly muted and atypical for Chianti Classico.
