June 18, 2019 - Bad cork. Wine did not hold up to time.
October 22, 2016 - Tasted during the WA tasting event "a matter of taste". Medium ruby. Nose of cherry, earth, spices. An elegant Chianti, light-med bodied on the palate.
October 12, 2015 - PnP + over 2 hrs. Nose of forest floor and cherry. Palate of same with good acidity, still tannic, chalky, spicy finish. Developing very nicely. Like the effects of age.
September 19, 2015 - Very good bottle of wine. Cherry and raspberries. Still fresh fruit, you could easily save the bottles 3-5 more years.
August 23, 2015 - medium dark red. Starts out with dark fruit and earth. Really good but dries out pretty quick.
April 2, 2015 - Good, but this final bottle was already a bit over the top already ...
December 12, 2014 - Dry; a bit of sediment.
November 6, 2013 - PnP - sour cherry albeit a good berry nose. sour aftertaste never went over the next 8 hours. Drank the rest the next night - didnt improve, sour!
October 23, 2013 - Better on day 2, needed to open up.
October 20, 2013 - Decanted with lots of sediment in bottle. Traditional style Chianti Classico Riserva. Drinking very nicely right now and was delicious with my chinghiale ragu and gnocchi.
