Light ruby moving to a soft garnet color. Light bodied Sangio. Juicy cranberries, tart cherries, and red plums. A dash of herbs, black pepper, and that classic dirt road minerality. Great balance between Chianti dusty and grippy tannins and Italian red wine acidity. It's just a touch thin.

Serviceable but basic Chianti. Bright red fruits, oak, tannins, medium- finish.
