  Really delicious Chianti. Great value as well. Always have a case in the cellar. Big raspberry flavor with some plumb. Maybe some smoke in there as well. Good heat with the alcohol (14%). Great QPR

  Nose of raspberry and red fruit, maybe a little black pepper. Big, well balanced jammy flavor with more raspberry and cranberry. Slight oak to it. Really smooth.

  This wine is really shining this year. See my notes from August for previous bottle, only this one has greater depth and breadth of the same flavors. A great ending.
