Solid little wine from @WineAwesomeness! Dusty, muted red fruit, cherry pit, nice bite, high acid.

Picked this up at @VintageBerkeley Elmwood a while back. Brilliant - lithe and smoky and ferrous minerality from all that red clay.

Med body with red berries and red cherry notes, med plus acidity, soft tannin, dusty, not too much oak note, barely has oak note but aged in American oak. A great everyday chianti for it bucks. Biodynamic farming, native yeast, 85 % Sangiovese.
