  Good fresh Chianti with cherry and strawberry fruit, nice brightness and acidity.

  Great structure. Notes of cherry, grass and oak. A delicious Valentine's Day wine.

  Popped and poured; consumed over three days. Day 1 was super duper primary and “okay” but not all that interesting. Day 2 was better. Day 3? Now it had my attention. Dark cherry, Fig Newton™️, and conditioned leather. Dry. Medium tannins. Medium-plus acid. Versatile. I was on the fence with this...but I’ve come around. I dig it, but it needs time (or significant air).

  Red fruited, a bit tannic just now, but with good/good+ potential. Look for this to improve a bit in a few more years. Drink 2022-2029. recommended+
