Popped and poured; consumed over several hours. This bottle currently benefits from air; needing at least 30 minutes to really open. However, when it did, what a ride! Loads of bright cherry on the nose accompanied by leather, mushrooms, wet asphalt, tomato leaf, dried herbs, dry dusty earth. On the palate, tart cherries, minerals, and earth. Medium-plus tannins and medium-plus acid giving it plenty of structure. Long finish. A wine of incredible freshness and a stunning example of Chianti Classico Riserva.
