This wine is a perfect example of why I am a napa cab snob. Light, almost flat, little fruit, not very interesting even with pasta and meatballs. I need to stop buying this stuff.

Splash decanted. Good color. Notes of sweet oak toast on the nose opened to dried cherry, pomegranate, herbs (oregano). Fine structure with cocoa and espresso. Tight. Much nicer with food.

Did I over breath this bottle? A fairly ordinary Chianti. Thin to medium body, pretty weak in all aspects.
