  Aromas of sweet cheries and plums. Full bodied and soft, with sweet and dense fruit.

  PnP'd - in its prime drinking window. Flavors of red cherries and strawberry. Medium acidity with a nice finish. Great QPR.

  on the second day, it performed much better..
  the nose was still more on the cherries side only but in the mouth it got also some flavours of leather an tobacco, quite pasty, harmonic and balanced maybe not exactly fresh to get an higher rating. it had also a good length!
  considering the price, I would say a very good QPR.

  decanted 30 min, in the glass for 2 hours more. wild sour cherry-centric, correct in a riper way, cherry pit bitters, back palate acids.

  Black and red fruits compote, plums, leather, evident woody note. Medium acidity, medium body. Some bitterness in the aftertaste. Not the best type of Chianti, specially for 2015. Drinkable though.
