Nuovo Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend

Quite a standard Classico, though it could use more time in the cellar. Bright ruby red, tart blackberries, cherry, and leather. When drinking and opening up some vanilla comes out. The acidity is strong though, and slightly overpowering. Tannins a touch too much.

Heavy floral notes with lavender and violet, carnation, cherry blossom and red rose, booming amid dried black cherry espresso and cocoa, though distinctly separate. Dark toasted sesame, rye bread, and crumbled earth. Bright cherry palate turns dusty in all the right ways, leaning into cocoa nib and espresso oils. Lovely and dry with dried cran and red currant but exhibits miles of lingering blood orange citrus and crystalline cherry. Gorgeous. Eternally evolving and all of it amazing. The concrete egg has made something ethereal that also shows a mysterious depth. Great range.
