  I gave it an hour of air. Maybe that was a mistake, although it was smoother after 5-6 hours. It didn't seem as memorable as 6 month ago, but still highly drinkable. I ended up buying six more when it reappeared at Costco a month later.

  Best Chianti I've had. Scent of strawberry and a little white wine yeastiness upon opening. Light on the tongue. Bright red fruit, strawberry and acid up front, but with some lingering dark fruit depth on the finish. 90-92 pts. (Six months later, I bought more when it reappeared at Costco.)

  Moderate ruby color with nose of raspberries, smoke, ash, and peppers. Full tannins but not overpowering. Peppers on the finish and minerals. Enjoyable with Tuscan pepper chicken and pasta aglio e olio.

  In het glas helder robijnrood. De neus is zuiver met kers, vanille, tabak, braam. In de mond medium zuren, gemiddelde tanninen en body. Het fruit is prima in balans. Deze wijn is op dronk maar kan nog prima even liggen. Ik verwacht dat er nog wat ontwikkeling in zit. Aangenaam glas en prima prijskwaliteit verhouding.
