90-91/100
Decanted 4 hrs previous.
Wine Soc back label boll*cks: ''....full generous and round, smooth vibrantly fruit flavours...''
Not yet mature but drinking very well all the same; some complexity here, an attractive Chianti Classico DOCG from a reportedly good vintage. Impressive QPR/VFM
T....decent concentration, easy fruit - damsom plum, black cherry, blackberry - a tad damp forest floor; vanilla, med-body; some length, fresh acid; ends near-dry. Feels like will improve a little in the cellar, but not massively.
N....some vanilla/sweet wood, black fruits
C....dark red, no signs of age at 4 yrs.
VFM?....will buy more of this 2016, costs £12.95 but feels £20.00329 views
