Medium ruby in colour. Noticeable earthiness on nose and palate with herbal tea like notes on nose. Could only be Sangiovese. Medium bodied.

Wine by the glass in a Warsaw foodcourt. Nice chianti classico. Very savory, meaty nose with a nice touch of smoke, almost bacon fat, cherry. The palate is well made, with some nice acid drive, some width, carressing tannins, good length of the finish, some savory notes in the rear too. Not too bad for a by the glass wine.
