Very nice Chianti. Popped and poured. Dark and red fruits are prominent. Typical Sangiovese notes with reasonable tannins. Rampolla is a top notch producer and this wine shows well and will continue to do so for several years.

Everything you want from Chianti Classico. Vibrant dark raspberry with crisp acidity and plenty of grip. Will last many years but already drinking nicely. 13.5%

Quite a lot of Chianti (Must & Lees, Warren Street): Really good. Saturated dark cherry, spicy oak, violet, vanilla: contained but deep. Clearly of breeding from a quality producer - a contrast of high toned perfume with fruit depth. Subtly concentrated on the palate with a bitter edge, fine tannins.

The 2nd time I've tried this particular vintage, and if you like bright red fruit & acidity on a lighter-bodied chassis, this might be the CC for you. Sweet & sour cherry on the palate, this is very pleasant and a real food friendly wine.

I bought a variety of $30 Chiantis recently and have tried 4 of them. The other 3 were delicious but this tasted like a cheap $8 bottle. Hopefully just an off bottle.
