  Nicely mature, can go longer for curiosity but the balance is good now. Pairs well with any beef.

  So I actually enjoyed this bottle (with Bolognese) much better than the first three. There is still just a hint of raisin, which distracts, but overall a quite nice Chianti for the price. Even with a touch of raisin, this was an excellent value at $15.

  Decanted 1 hr and had with grilled pork chops. This is a wine that exceeds in many ways. It might be better after a little longer decant as it is opening up as the meal progresses. It is a great QPR that will continue to develop over a few more years.

  Super complex and savory for a Chianti of this age.

  A very nice representation. Notes of deep red fruit, especially dried cherry, with a dry finish.
