That’s nice. Most typical Radda Chianti w/o the French oak.3 vineyards combined for some time in SS then into large Slovenian Casks. So, henceforth, just a push from the wood, not a glaze.
Blood red dirty nose, plum and spice.
Tart on the palate, bright, strawberries, cherries, a reminder of what was.
Delicious.
Great w fatty sausages and red sauce.
