Riper and more candied fruit than many chianti's at this price point. Can drink by itself or with food, I agree it definitely over delivers.

Aug 17th, 2014Чуть пыльно, ванильно, с черными ягодами - черникой и голубикой. В развитии пыль (сера?) уходит, появляются плотная слива и черника, тона дуба, корица, кардамон. Плотное, насыщенное вино, с хорошим балансом и чуть суховатыми танинами. 15.5/20 (87/100)

Jul 5th, 2017This is fabulous. Deep ruby red. Almost garnet red. Perfectly balanced. Nice acidity with some tannins still present. Drinking nicely now. Red fruit finish and tangy.
