Decent Costco value. Wanted more from it. Needed its flavor volume turned from a 5 to a 10. Cherry galore, chalky/dusty earth, and a little leather. Moderate tannins on the gums.

Nov 16th, 2023Acceptable. Not nearly as good as I expected. Actually ordinary for a Riserva Chianti. It does have the classic sour cherry aftertaste lingering in your mouth but not for very long. Lots of other Chianti’s taste better and cost less.

Oct 21st, 2022A very good median priced Chianti. Acid, tannins (med, med-hi). Inky color, 13.5% alcohol, so bit of a bite. Capable of fighting with strong Italian dishes. Red sauce, frau diavalo. Tobacco, licorice. Good for the price ~$20.
