  Cherry and raspberry flavors seem to stand out. It’s got the usual Italian terroir that’s mineral based, but it’s not overwhelming. It’s bright and lightly tannic.

  I don't remember the last time I sensed such strong aromas of blackberries and blueberries in wine. Amazing thing! Drinking the third glass and still these aromas are strong and clear, but a few sips from the first glass were enough to say that this wine is excellent. In addition to the above aromas, there are also a lot of herbs, smoke, minerals, plums, red cherries. Taste? It's on the sweet side of dry red wine. Black cherry, plum, blackberries, but fortunately there are also wonderful juicy red cherries, red currants
  In addition, the spiciness grips the tongue from beginning to end. Long finish with the above ingredients and grippy tannins and, above all, balance balance balance.

  Fresh
  Fruity

  Very pleasant Chianti Classico Riserva. Good fruit, medium to full bodied. Very nice with Italian tomato-based pasta sauce.
