July 22, 2022 - Last of the frozen bottle fiasco from WTSO (WTSO took care of the issue with their great customer service). Again not sure how the cold effected the wine. This time around it was a middle of the road Chianti.

February 21, 2022 - Another bottle with a corking slightly coming out due to freezing. Good solid Chianti.

January 30, 2022 - 1 of 4 bottles that was potentially damaged in shipping. 3 of the 4 had corks pushing out, this one pushed out through the foil about half way out and had some slight leakage. Apparently it got cold between NJ and Oregon. I also usually let bottles rest for a month before consuming when they are shipped this far, but this bottle was calling me to open. Overall an enjoyable bottle over two nights. Medium typical chianti flavors. Not sure how much the freezing and protruding cork effected this one. No score due too the many variables.

July 20, 2021 - Red berry, plum and chocolate on the palate. Medium body with chewy tanin. Flavorful and powerful lingering finish. Delicious. Ready now.
