Smokey blueberries (if there was such a thing), vanilla, coconut cream, licorice, beef jerky, and a subtle dill/mint note. Plums, blueberries, sour cherry with some toasty oak and black tea. Medium acidity and medium, slightly course tannins.
Really tasty stuff. Quite Rioja like which I enjoy. I'll be looking for Temp from this region in the future. — 3 years ago
High Level Chianti Rufina! Complex and long finale, but velvet, smooth tannins. Toasted wood, tobacco - all subtle but very present!! Fruit notes like lingonberry…

An entry level Rufina, but so QPR in a medium bodied 95 % Sangiovese 5% Colorino blend. Drank over 3 days, & it kept on giving. Dark red fruits like ripe plum with bay leaf in the background; medium acidity with a fantastically chewy mouthfeel, almost grainy. For 11$ & change on sale, high return QPR. Matched perfectly w roasted carrot & Brussel sprouts lasagna — 3 years ago
Dry and fruity, but not overly so. Nice with spaghetti and meatballs. — 2 years ago
Castello Del Trebbio ‘Lastricato’ Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG 2016: Medium-bodied. Medium tannins. Medium acidity. Intense red fruit aromas with tasting notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, spice, earth & oak. Long smooth finish. All in all, an elegantly dark-colored, well-structured, fresh & ripe Chianti Rufina Riserva! Worth enjoying now or cellaring for later; you won’t be disappointed. Cheers🍷 — 2 years ago
