Blend of 90% Sangiovese, 5% Colorino and 5% Merlot. Ruby with dark berry fruit aromas, tobacco and herb notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and cherry with spice notes. Tannins are fine and firm, medium finish ending with savory character. Drink now, actually better than Reserva.

Jul 31st, 2021Forgot to log this one. Surprisingly good, at an affordable price ($15 ish). Well balanced, with enough grip to handle some meat, and enough fruit/acidity to pair with tomato sauce. Very well done. No formal notes taken.
90 pt range.

Aromas of cherry and raspberry on the nose followed by bright fruit on the palate backed with moderately crisp acidity and tannins. Some cedar and a hint of smokiness. Moderately persistent finish. Medium bodied. Great value Chianti Classico.
