Lovely full bodied Chianti Classico Riserva still tannic on the palate and could age at least another 5 years. Very indicative of the region of Castellina in Chianti with the addition of 10% Merlot for smoothness and body. Unfortunately my last bottle of the 2008 vintage. Drinking in May, 2020. — 4 years ago

Decent Sangiovese blend from Tuscany. Fruit forward and delicious with spicy notes like black currant and plum. Not my favorite Tuscan in the $30-50 range — 3 years ago

Dark fruits on the nose but slightly drier with more tannins on the palate. Deep inky color. Picked up at the vineyard in Chianti. — 4 years ago
Earthy tones, medium viscosity, slight fruitiness once you let the wine breath. Becomes more subtle in the earthy tones once the one breaths for 10 mins.

Not a ton on the nose. Pomegranate. Smooth. Hint of oak. Dry. Grapefruit rind and a bit smoky in the finish. — 6 months ago
