I almost labelled this Chablis a generic straight forwarded table wine after the first glass with predominantly red fruit and not much else..
3.5 hours later on with the second glass, wow! what a transformation.. There's nice savoury white peppery tomato coming through with dried fig and slight leather and sandlewood.
Medium fruited, medium bodied, medium tannins and acidity and medium + length.
Actually quite enjoyable and a pleasant surprise..

Dark color with a mild nose. On the mid palate the wine displays some red berries along with some mild minty notes. On the medium length finish the wine displays some lively acidity firm tannins and firm dryness. As it breathed it eased some with the fruit coming through a little more than at first. Probably a bit too young. I would give it an 88 or so. I would have to say for the price I have had better Chiantis.

Bu à la Casa du Spaghetti de Granby. Sans être le plus grand vin, pour le prix c`est bien fait et sans reproche. Beau fruit rouge avec une belle acidité, finale moyenne mais suave...très bel accord avec le poulet Teriyaki.

Text book Chianti of Cherry Tart, red berry fruit, a hint of dried spices and sharp tannins on the finish. Medium body wine that won't offend, nor exude excellence, but certainly satisfy.

- Garnet color. It's lacking fruit with a light/medium body. Smooth texture with a medium finish.

Velvety smooth with a long finish. Light berry flavor. Tastes better than it smells.

A bit smooth, soft, not much to dislike but not a great deal going on. Easy-drinking.

Vinho bem leve, atípico para um chianti. Ok para o dia a dia, nada demais.

Cherry with some tannin with no acidity and easy drinking finale. Not overly complex but still well structure.
