January 21, 2017 - Similar to last tasting note. Nice Chianti Classic, good with food. Still drinking nicely but probably nearing end of drinking window.

January 7, 2015 - Excited to try this after reading the other notes and that '10 was a great year, but was serious disappointed. Found it to be overly tart, thin/high alcohol and lacking any form or finesse. The Red Starling (featured on the bottle) seems to have left and flew South for the winter. Regardless, cheers.

September 27, 2014 - 30 min decant. Drinking well now. Nicely balanced. Classic Chianti nose and flavors.
