First of the WSJ Wines. Mellowed than expected. I enjoy it!

Delightfully medium-to-full bodied. Paired well with a hearty pasta rigatoni in homemade ragú sauce meal. Notes of dark fruit especially blackberry and cherry. Excellent bottle for any occasion. Well-priced at USD$19 but likely to sell for USD$45 at a restaurant.

Had the 2021 in December of 2023. Enjoyed this one. Paired very well with a sound dried tomato and cream sauce chicken dish. Had some of the blackberry/cherry flavors. Medium bodied with some lingering tannins. Happy to have another bottle of this WSJ wine.

Decent red but nothing too special. Short with medium body and a nice dry bite. 25 December 2020

Not the best Chianti I've ever had. It just tasted very young there wasn't much depth to it. And it kind of had a tanginess to it that was a real turn off
