  Been buying Farnatella for almost 20 years, but only when I can find it here in Chicago. Don't seem to see it in most vintages here, but usually buy some when I do. Always a nice value. Love good chianti's but, hard to find decent every day chianti's anymore.
  
  Tart red cherries, pomegranate, some tart citrus notes, earthiness, dried herbs. Perfect with leftover roasted vegetable lasagna. Will look to pick up a few more.

  Bright red berries, both tangy and tart, backed by an excellent expression of Tuscan terroir. Medium plus acid and noteworthy grip. Enjoyable now and over the next several years.

  Sour taste. The more sips I had the more I disliked it.
