Delicious! Tart cherry, fairly rich and full. Tannins are present, but mostly resolved.

Really a very nice Chianti Classico from Radda. Purchased on sale from eataly for $24, great value. I do like many radda chiantis for their higher acid more high toned nature - this has that, but also brings a degree of wildness that is intriguing. Perfect pairing with a long simmered sausage ragu on a day that ended up being slightly warmer than anticipated for a meal like that.

Really lifted Chianti, medium body. Profile is kind of like unripe dark fruit - tannic of course and no ripe, but still has the essence of like red plum or cherry, some licorice
