Good flavors of berry and earth, drinks well alone and is also food friendly. Short finish, but nicely balanced at this point, good acidity and mild tannins. Can probably cellar though 2010. Good buy for the price ($18).

Good showing on the nose with plum and berry. I have to say, a very nice Chianti with the right acidity for food and lingers well without going hot on alcohol or spice. Reminds me of the Ruffino's I had. Pop and pour as it starts to flatten out with longer exposure.

OK fruit on the nose, bitter and unbalanced.
