JJYoyo Likes this wine: 93 points
March 2, 2024 - A fantastically elaborate nose of sour cherry, dried oregano, potting soil. Copious tannins. Palate favors the earthy side of the bouquet right now. Several years to go until maturity. Very far away from cheap n cheerful Chianti — a wine of complexity and pedigree. Not as multifaceted as this producer’s more prestigious cuvées (like Percarlo) but the same attentive and skilled winemaking is at work here.
Score: 93-94. Relative to expectations: ++2 people found this helpful 528 views
