Great spicy nose, medium bodied, cranberry and cherry flavors. Mild tannins and smooth lingering tart finish.

Far too flabby. Lacks that great Italian brute force. Very fruity.

It's just a chianti. But not a Classico. Not a riserva. Basically just a Sangiovese with a cool name.

Well balanced with a higher ratio of fruit to floral notes than the usual Chianti.
