Terrazze Chianti Classico Riserva Sangiovese 2017

This turned out to be really excellent. Bought direct from Kermit Lynch. Classic, dark ripe cherry. Touch plum and extremely good soft and plenty of tannins. Quite tart now yet it will last a decade. Decant tons of air - or drink over 2 days. Back palate coater! Easily can match Brunellos at a better price point! — 12 hours ago

Chianti Classico Sangiovese 2020

Quite fruit driven at this point. Give it 15min to breathe in the glass. Good tannic structure. Could go for 5 years or so. Classic in style - cherries, tobacco and a hint of violets. Beautiful expression of the grape - one ought to be able to identify this blind. A little high 14.5%. — 2 months ago

Fattoria di Scannano Chianti Sangiovese 2020

Bevuto 2024.
Incredibile. Mantenuto benissimo. Mineralissimo. Balsamico. Ematico. Tanta sapidità, ancora molto buona acidità. Bel tannino. Grande annata !

Buriano Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Such pure dark berry fruit, concentrated almost black berry fruit snacks. A little toast, clove, and black tea. Rustic edges. Luscious currant and berry fruit fill the mouth. Softening tannin. Stands up well to steak. Solid length. From Tuscany. Outstanding QPR. — 3 years ago
