Community Tasting Note

  March 4, 2012 - I first wanted to give this bottle a higher score but it finishes bitter and with some alcoholic heat. The wine is spicy and plummy on the nose with evidence of oak. On the palate it is rich, full-bodied by Chianti standards with medium-high acid and fierce tannin. This is so much different than the Felsina Rancia from the same vintage. Good juice maybe but only for the long haul and I worry that nothing can cover up that back palate burn....
