Strong red fruit character meets a acidity & firm tannins. Absolutely okay to open a bottle if you have some more in the cellar. If not, be patient.

My second one of these. This is now in its drinking window, but remains a darker, bigger boned Chianti than I tend to gravitate towards. Best with a meat dish.

I was hoping for something a little more impressive, given the strong professional reviews. It was a good Chianti with a faint rustic element, nothing more.

Just didn't do it for me esp for the price. Def a food wine.
