Ruby with berry fruit aromas, tobacco and herb notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and cherry with cedar and spice notes. Fine tannins, good balance with acidity, medium+ finish ending with toasty oak character. Drink now, food friendly, nice value!

The first time I had this wine I liked it— mature, round, cooked fruit forward. The second time I had it… not so much. Same vintage, but Heavy violet & lavender notes (not in a good way) + a little barnyard. Not sure what happened but not a fan. Drank more like a Beaujolais then a Chianti.

Paired this with a mint/basil pesto lamb rack, garlic green beans, and a quinoa risotto. So good!

We had the 2018 Vintage on 5/20-21/22. This got better with time. The bouquet had leather and tobacco. There was red cherry, raspberry and mushroom on the palate. Medium bodied Old World wine. There was a three fold mark up by the restaurant. Not a bad wine. It was better on the second night when served properly.

Not a bad Chianti, perhaps slightly overripe or extracted. Nice pairing with a charred rib eye. But not too remarkable.
