Bright dark cherry, blackcurrant, leather, potting soil, dried herbs, finely grained tannins, palate falls off a little towards the mid-palate, however smooth and long finish. This is a wine where everything comes together, however, you just feel that mid-palate could be a little more concentrated, tastes more a C.C than a Riserva, remember though this is Radda not Panzano so a lighter style of wine should be expected.

Similar to previous tasting note, excellent C.C Riserva from Radda, with dark berries, tomato leaf well-balanced acidity, good weight yet nimble and a straight finish, this is everything you would want from a $28 CAD CCR.

Strong Aromas of black cherry, blackcurrant and dried violets. The palate was more structured compared to the CC with more muscular tannins along with dark fruit, liquorice, clay, concentration yet with good freshness and bright acidity. Blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% Merlot.
