  A: med garnet with loads of bricking
  N: sour cherry, mushroom, leather, earth, dried baking spice, dust, some green/herbaceous notes
  P: dry, high acidity, med body, 13% ABV, high fine tannins
  C: good wine = there is still balance with remaining fruit and tertiary notes present enough to withstand the high acidity and high but fine tannins, med (+) intensity, med (-) concentration, med complexity and med finish. This is at the tail end and just hanging on - it is lacking in freshness and what is left of the fruit will fade soon.

  Everything you would expect from a well aged Chianti Classico. 2 hours decanted, beautiful cherry, strawberry palate and easy drinking with a high flow rate, perfectly balanced. Brought for family dinner and had to speed up as my father was nearly drinking up the whole bottle alone. Perfect to duck breast.
