Last bottle of 12, PnP. Thought it's time to empty it before it is over the hill, but wow, it did again a step up compared to the last one. On the nose blackberries and black currant, liquorice and underwood, on the palate fresh, good depth and a very long finish. Classic Riserva in a very nice spot now, quite mature but without any signs of declining, it shows still a lot of life and there is no hurry to empty the last bottles.

PnP, required just some minutes to open. Mature, classic Sangiovese, red fruited with tertiary notes, on the palate still with good freshness, medium+ bodied and long finish. In the style of the house with a rustic touch, in a good spot now, most probably it will not improve anymore, therefore drink it within the next 3 years to be on the save side.

Perfect cork, well stored. Fantastic to drink the same wine we enjoyed in Firenze in 2012. A lot has happened with this wine since.
The baby fat is off as well as the pink filtered glasses. Not a very good showing from quality POV.
But as a dinner companion, this is a modern Chianti that drinks with pleasure and without any kind of problems. Delicious acidity beat all the food we put on the dinner table.
Should be good for a number of more years.
If you prefer fruitf**kers, you're already too late on this ball.
