Solid Chianti Classico — 5 months ago
Dark yet fresh. Ripe black cherry, the typical dried thyme aroma, a touch of tomato leaf. Definitely on the fruitier side of Chianti yet still fresh and quite elegant. Maybe the savoury side will emerge with age.
On the palate this is impeccably balanced (and this with 14.5% alc!). Very finely polished tannins, fresh juicy acidity, and enough fruit & savoury edges to fill this frame.
This is a very, very nice Chianti Classico. The bottle empties scarily fast! — a year ago
Cellini goede Italiaan in Maasmechelen — a day ago
2018:
Bouquet is oak and berries. Just like being there when the juice is placed in the barrel. The initial palate is outrageously good! Big oak up front. Large dark berry presentation. No butter. Very dry.Lots of cigar box and soil flavors. No spice. No chocolate. No sour. 14.5% abv. Wonderfully dry finish. Simply amazing. Nothing to confuse your palette. I LOVE this wine. My favorite of 2023 so far. 67 dollars from wine.com. And for the record, this 2018 is perfectly aged for my palate. My palette disagrees with those who say otherwise. I LOVE IT!!!!!! Drink now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! — 2 months ago
