Found this one hidden in a closet. After bottle funk blew off, there was a strong dried plum nose. Round tannins and surprising amount of acidity remaining.
Solid with pizza.

Had forgotten about this one! Absolutely wonderful! Read another review that it was past its peak. Not this bottle anyway. Just perfect. Lots of dark fruit and more concentrated than I expect a Chianti to be. Would buy if I find another bottle!

Deep burgundy color. Blackberry and leather or earth on the nose. Like most Chiantis, this is light, fruity with a hint of spice. Where this differs is the balance from beginning to end. If you love the Sangiovese grape, this is a must buy!
