Excellent finish just what you want from a Sangiovese. The 1.5 liter is a great value.

Hint of cherry on the nose and mouth. Nice medium bodied Chianti.

I enjoyed the 2013. For the price this was very good. 5 years with a modest price? I’d definitely purchase this again. I enjoyed this with a Lasagna and with a pecorino cheese, perfect!!!!

Medium bodied Chianti, round mouthfeel with notes of tart cherry. Not overly tannic which makes for easy drinking!

A little fruity, but a nice cheap wine. Taylor -- "the taste is very understated. It does the job."

Big nose. Herby and cherries. A bit harsh once I take a sip.
