Its been a few years since I last opened a bottle which was clearly to early then. This time the wine displays an array Fruity aromas of blackberries and raspberries and fine floral nuances. Alluring aromas of ripe plum, fragrant violet, blackberries and raspberries with baking spice creating a savory, enjoyable nose. The easy-drinking palate combines an enticing weightless quality with succulent fruit including fleshy black cherry, crushed raspberry, licorice and chopped herb alongside round, polished tannins. The wine has a very pleasant taste intensity with smooth tannins and good texture. The final is clean and fruity. Delicious !!

lovely wine. Cherries and oak, with savory notes. It's got sour cherries, a hint of coffee, a good lick of smooth tannins. A decent balance of acidity and a tingle of more sweet and sour cherries on the finish. It's been some time since I've had a good chianti and this is a great example.
