Full enough to be interesting but rustic and simple enough to enjoy readily Black and blueberries on the front with brambles, licorice and touch of rose followup. Great for red sauce pasta and sautéed vegetables (fresh spinach from the garden)

60 minute decant. Tart fruit. Good tannic pucker. Solid value. Not too complicated, just an enjoyable Sangiovese with just enough complexity to keep things interesting. Drinking well right now

Opened for 60 minutes. Light burgundy color, sweet cherry nose. Lots of black cherry fruit, with a touch of tobacco and tar. Nice acidity bakances the effort. This wine has improved since last time.

Straightforward Chianti. Great value for price. Red fruit with broad initial impact following through to well rounded leather accented licorice and fern.

Relatively high tannins now should resolve in 2 or 3 years, but still ready to drink now. Immense fruit and good long out. Great QPR considering Antinori CC as a comparable at $19.
