Truly outstanding CCGS, soul of a Flaccianello with the heart of a Napa cab. Cola and compote. Rich, even sexy. Best after a quick decant.

Impressive in all of its bigness and oak. Lovely savory dry tobacco leaf and mulberry spice flavors. Still young tho with raspy firm tannin many years ahead of it yet.

Jan 2nd, 2018Me to my wife: "Wow. Awesome. This needs another 10 years!"
My 10 yr old: "Dad, that's like my whole life!"
From the mouths of babes. Why wait, for CCGS as if it was made by Napa Cabernet winemakers. Full, leather and floral nose, easily the most robust I've had in a Chianti. Structured Sangiovese, more Brunello Riserva, loaded with dark sour cherry and fine tannins. Totally yummy, chewy and so young. A 20-year+ Chianti (but don't tell my son!)
