ヴィンテージ切り替わったタイミングでの試飲。
旨味のチャーミングなり甘さ。小梅的な酸。
ヴィンテージ切り替わり直後だが、良いバランス。
酸を活かしたブルゴーニュグラスで飲むのも良いが、ボルドーの方が上品な甘さを感じれて好きかな。 — 7 months ago
暑い年を感じさせない丸くて柔らかな果実。
その後に、小梅的な旨味のある酸がジワジワ。
そう書くとエレガント系みたいだが、エレガンスはあるけど、垢抜けないチャーミング。
派手さはないんだけど、これ、めちゃくちゃ好き。 — 7 months ago
Solid Chianti. Everything I want. Fruit, earth, leather, tobacco, more fruit at the end. Tasting great with 8 years of age. — 3 months ago
2019 red wine. Organic. Balanced and easy to drink. — 5 months ago
Dark cherry freshness, with a savoury pinch of dried herbs and a deeper, darker whiff of mushrooms / undergrowth / roast. Very pure & enticing.
On the palate this show v. nice balance and great freshness (2019!). Nice dark, sweet cherry with brambly, juicy (and nicely polished) tannins, fresh acidity and a herby, savoury finish.
A very proper classic Chianti - finally balanced after all these super hot vintages. — 6 months ago
Medium ruby color.
Aromas of fresh red fruit, cherry, honeysuckle,
Dry. Flavors of red fruit, licorice, floral, herbal. Moderate, firm tannins and great acidic backbone. Light and fresh. Lovely!

Got two bottles with dinner. Definitely some variation. The leather, earth, herbs was present in both. One had more fresh fruit with cherry and currant while the other was more dried and savory. Both outstanding value for 9 year old Sangiovese. The amazing food also helps! — 5 months ago
This is an elegant, medium-weight Chianti. Everything in very nice balance. Color is showing a bit of maturity. Nose has a lot of sandstoney gravel notes, lightly spiced ripe cherries. In the mouth, it’s got lots of gravelly minerality and savory cherry extract. Lots of very soft but tactile tannins. Medium body and soft acids. Restraint is the byword here. — 7 months ago
