There's purity to the cherry, strawberry and earth flavors. Juicy and well-structured, with a firm mesh of tannins. Finishes long and savory. Built to age... Wine Spectator

There's some of the sour cherry happening on the nose and palate, but it certainly isn't a fruit-driven wine. Perfect partner for the homemade pizzas, but as a stand-alone wine this might be a tough sip.

Smells like chianti, tastes like chianti, but not like very good wine. Low acidity and lack of concentration are the main detractors.

Smooth tannins, stewed red fruit, and pepper on the nose and palate. Some spiciest in the finish makes for a fun wine.

I received a half bottle of this from our wine loving neighbor as she found it undrinkable. We had it with our dinner and rather enjoyed it. As the Romans said "De gustabus non est disputatem". Or in the words of Little Richard "Different strokes for different folks. " Tom A

Surprising in a blind tasting! Not knowing it's chianti meant we picked it for a temperanillo. Poults of smoke
