  After 9 years, leather and tobacco on the nose, with red cherries. Palate after an hour or so is transparent, layers of cherry and brambles with earthy leaf litter and mushroom on the finish. Lovely aged Chianti, great with tomato-based dishes.

  A little young, but the acid was gone with a 30 minute decant. Not bad wine - lots of strawberry and cherries up front. The crowd liked it quite a bit, and the QPR on this wine is pretty good. I would not hesitate to buy a case or two of this to put in the cellar. This is a medium bodied wine but is actually trending to a full bodied wine - the problem is that at Macaroni Grill, the wine being not and expressuve a billiant. Execellare.n
