Nice Chianti Classico. Medium bodied, good structure at 6 years, layers of red fruit. Good acidity.

Lovely though a bit rusty at first but opens up nicely after decanting

So solid, dark fruits & grip, has a density & elegance belying its price

Brimming with black cherry and plum fruit, leather, followed by cooling flavors of juniper, clove, and arid underbrush. Love the spine this has, classy with chalky tannin. Digging it!

The color is surprisingly advanced with a good deal of brick/garnet in the rim.. Otherwise the color is medium Ruby and on the nose there is leather, cherry, anise and a bit of dried red flower petals. Medium high acidity, well balanced tannins and good length on the finish. Elegant more than powerful and already drinking well

This is quite a bit darker than previous vintages. Palate is right on though. Firm tannin, rustic through and through with barnyard, roasted meat, smoke, and charcoal. Elegance body, layered, nuanced and contemplative. A consistently great wine vintage to vintage.

Seems very young. Should gain more complexity with time. Almost grapey. Lots of sappy fruit.
