Totally agree with the above description as “velvety”. This is a plush, medium bodied wine; think dark red berries and beefsteak tomatoes charring in a clay pot. Is anyone else getting almond on the finish?

Blech. Used some for stew and dumped out the rest, rather than drink.

Insanely smooth. Great with Italian food. Best chianti I've ever had
