2010 Isole e Olena Chianti Classico - Really nice dark sweet (but not actually sweet) fruit, comforting earthiness and a finely tannic finish.

Outstanding QPR, but also a terrific CC. Dark, deep and rich, earthy, tart. Layered. Long finish.

Wow! This is gorgeous. Very fine CC. Punches way above its weight. Tart red cherry, lovely earthy bit. Dusty tannins. Long finish. Blind, I would have guessed Brunello.
