Doesn’t taste like a Chianti. Not much body. No complexity. Doesn’t deserve the title of a Riserva.

The Italian herb and cherry notes were nice but just a little too much oak. Still very good and nice acidity.

Really deep aftertaste, if not tad dry. Great! 24 bucks

An amazing daily drinker. Not challenging at all. Plush with just enough subtle complexities to win you over.

Medium intensity on the nose, flavors of ripe red fruits (cherry) as well as herbal notes. Medium body and finish. Great value for money at CHF 10.

Violet and cherry. A little sour at first and later improved with dinner.
