Drank 5/1/19. Nice pairing with sausage lasagne

An elegant side of chianti classico with a classic nose of red cherry, worn leather, and earth. Medium body, with sweet red cherry, and leather, backed by medium, well integrated tannins. Medium finish. Impeccable balance. Very nice.

3/21/8/5/3. +50 =90 pts.

I was a little concerned upon uncorking - tight and some new oak. Woke right up in the glass after ten minutes or so. Lithe wild cherry, forest floor, drinks the same on a medium frame, plentiful acidity with soft clingy tannins at the end. #chianticlassicoriserva

Smooth, easy, drinking, medium bodied great flavor, no bitter aftertaste not extremely dry perfectly measured right in the middle. Love this wine. also the price point is about 19/$20 a bottle.

Great mid priced value. Red cherry, earthy, cranberry. Nice finish. Will buy again.

It was standard, better than box wine but that’s not saying much. I won’t buy another bottle of this as it left no memory.
