It’s not your typical Chianti.

A riserva... How?

Smells like a wood shop.

Really rustic nose, earth and flowers, quite reductive as well. Cab and merlot detracts from sangiovese qualities, quite austere on palate and seems a bit diluted. Comsumable but not noteworthy. 2010 vintage.

Lots of tannins, slight acidity. Goes well with olives. Earthy, leathery, some red fruit on the nose. In general not impressed.

Wonderful nose to it. Getting some cedar, bark, earthy tones with some cherries. Maybe some smokiness. On first sip, tannin forward. It's dry and light tones of raspberry. The smell was fantastic but the taste was mediocre. Might need to be in the cellar for a bit longer.
