Had 2016 in 2023, got from WineThing. This is is best Sangiovese that we’ve ever had! It was great and mellow right out of the bottle. 😋

Lovely cherry, tobacco and licorice. Soft and easy. Good value Chianti. Killer with red tomato sauce.

Deep ruby color. Persistent aromas of dark cherry, plums and purple flowers. Dark cherry , plum and leather flavors with noticeable oak. Hints of crushed stone. Dusty texture and chewy tannins. Bright acidity. Thank You Chris B! Revisited in November 2022.

Blended cherry with licorice on the nose with very slight hint of must. Soft and gentle on the palate. Smoothness that makes you want to sit and sip all night.

$13 at Costco. 93 pts. Very clean and a little on the light side. Pretty good Chianti for the price.
