Layered and developing aromas, dark and red berries with a slight volatile lift, lavender, herbs, spice and iron.
Flavour is hitting you in waves, with a synchronized dance between the tannins and acidity, a vibrant backbone and dense presence on the palate, jogging over the finish line with confidence and good attitude.

Nicely balanced, lots of dirt

Very nice Chianti with a nose of cherries and around the edges, new leather. The palate gives more cherry, some pleasant minerality, medium high acidity, and a little tannin. All around modern style Chianti that can be sipped solo, but which also begs for food.

Delicious! Supple cherry with herbaceous edges and serious depth. For. Me this beats out Fontodi every time! Bright fruit with density and the perfect balance of wood.

Impeccably balanced and enough fruit to please the Cab drinker in our family. Me.

Punchy dark cherry dances with minerals, leather, tomato leaf, rosemary, and iron. Minimal, well integrated oak with a dry finish. Outstanding vintage and Chianti. Homemade spinach lasagna.

Surprised by the full body bold but the melody of a smooth muted trumpet solo. It captures every color of the rainbow.

A beauty. Slightly cherry fruit forward, earth, graphite in the background. Peaked after a 45min decant. I wish I had purchased another bottle or two.

Usually don’t love chiani’s but for a Napa lover I really like this one. Full of complex flavor.
