Top Notes For

This is a drinkable Chianti. Not fully balanced with medium plus acidity. Showing red fruits with earth notes. A good food wine, though.

Not my style, but drinkable nonetheless.

Would pair nicely with pizza.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

This earns an 87 based on QPR alone.. For $9, it's one of the very few Chianti's that are palatable in my opinion. Fresh strawberry and cherry fruit on the nose with a hint of earth and underbrush. The palate is lively with zingy acidity and a distinct freshness. Great value on this one.

Nice smooth flavor. Went well with a tomato-based sauce, stuffed pepper. Light in color but with a slight spicy taste. 2018 vintage. Got it at Total Wine Chantilly.
