Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2020 Chianti Classico pours a garnet color with medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of Montmorency cherries, Balsamico, mushrooms, stinky socks and cool spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium, a touch sweet and sour. Drink now.

In addition we get some prune and savory texture in mouth. Medium(+) bodied with long finish, medium(+) acidity and medium tannins. Mniam! Cheers
