No notes on this one. Opened for reception. Not well received at reception or next day. Everything looked ok but wine tasted 'sour' was the term others used to describe the wine. Possibly 'way' past its peak.

Dark ruby almost purple in color. The nose is an explosion of red to purple fruit flavors intermixed with lavender and anise. Long finish and not lacking acidity considering the vintage. Great bottle of standard Chianti. Gonna buy some of this.

Wow, keeps getting better. Wish this weren't my last bottle. Sour cherry, menthol, great balance...

It went well with rigatoni in a creamy tomato and herb sauce with mushrooms, however the spice of Italian sausage brought out the alcohol. 86 - 88

Needs to breathe more than I gave it, at least an hour.
