Bigger bodied Chianti, still nice tartness being balanced with fruit and mellow soil

Sangiovese with a little merlot mixed in. Mild leather, medium tannins, robust, a little dry. Nice mouth feel. A little heavier than most Chianti's (the merlot), but creative use of the grapes. Hats off to the wine maker.

Fräsch chianti med fyllig smak och tydliga inslag av mörka körsbär! Lång eftersmak med härlig syra! Passar utmärkt till både mat och sällskapsdryck!

Сладко-сливовый аромат, с аккуратным дубом и небольшим количеством пряностей, совсем чуть вяленого мяса. Танины чуть суховатые, но в целом очень симпатичное вино. 16/20 (88/100)

Extremely velvety tannin on this CCR, supposedly due to separate-parcel vinification, gravity flow, and gentle handling (no punch downs). Not to mention stellar fruit

Score = old school. Cherry, chestnut flavours. Dry and medium bodied. "The finish is quite lovely indeed"...
