Pretty tasty, if somewhat simple, Chianti. Red cherries galore and decent acidity. This may evolve over the next year or two, but it’s unlikely to ever be a wine of real complexity. More of an early drinking food companion, I think.

Wonderful Chianti. My first experience with this producer. Cherry, strawberry, earth tones. Bright ruby red in color. Popped and poured and ready to go. Enjoyed with a cypress salad and bucatini pasta. Under $20USD for me. Enjoy now or hold.

Medium ruby red. Red cherries, herbaceous, fine acidity, some , the nose is restrained and deepish. Bright redcurrant on tasting, tannins in the background, richness of stewed fruits, reasonably balanced. Good - better with a few days aging, smooths and balances well.

Last of 3. Still solid and at under $20USD, not much not to like here.

A touch more interesting than my first bottle but, still, this is mostly a simple, straightforward pleasure with a bowl of pasta.
