Lighter more garnet core , quite wide garnet , terracotta rim . Quite light and ethereal on the nose , with cedar , rose , bright red cherry , more delicate and aromatic in profile . On the palate this has fresh acidity and polished tannins, lighter than the Caparsino , a much more delicate and light touch, really elegant . Sweet raspberry and red cherry , touch of anis and spice . Decent length and balance. This is a more delicate and refined experience , pure red fruits and polished tannin . Drinking quite well now though will improve over the next 5 years or so and continue to show well a further 5-10. — 4 days ago

Medium ruby , slightly brighter ruby garnet rim . Quite refined on the nose , floral hints , some earthy sage , bright cherry and cedar also . On the palate this has more polish and elegance than the CC, with bright red fruits , touch of fresh herbs and a saline finish with good length . Fresh acidity and polished but present tannins . Balanced alcohol . Young but very balanced , needs a little time , 3 -5 years and will last well a further 10 or so . A really excellent example of classic Chianti Classico Riserva. — 4 days ago
