Oak, bright cherry, graphite/pencil shavings, and violets. Youthful and exuberant. Good acid, integrated earthiness, and quite elegant. Well made.

Straight up Chianti. Lovely, balanced and acid driven, but lacks a top gear to get me really excited.

Deep ruby core with a slightly opaque rim. Medium to full body, oozing with ripe cherry and black currant. Smacked down with leather and beaten with a graphite rod. Power and finesse collide with a wash of wild game and firm tannins; makes me dream of visiting Panzano all over again!
