Don't agree with other reviewers. It may be that the wine has laid down longer. I found it quite enjoyable. The price is right too for this wine. Earthy.

Agree with all the other reviewers--this underperforms and there are a lot of better chiantis out there. It's light in a diluted way, as if they added water to make 11 bottles' worth of wine fill 12 bottles. But where that would have been disappointing with a meaty main course, it was actually rather perfect for a summery main dish tomato-mozzarella-basil salad.

Black cherry, leather, and orange peel on the nose. Medium-bodied, with sour cherry and some earth on the palate. Simple, decent acidity, abrupt finish. Ten bucks.

Just not that interesting. I've had much better Chianti / Sangiovese at the same price level.

Thin, fruit juice tasting, no body, not even a good deal at $13.
