This up-front, fleshy Chianti is drinking really nicely right now. Pretty extroverted nose shows dark, macerated cherry, iodiney minerality, and a little loamy soil. In the mouth it’s pretty full, with a big whack of fruit initially, some tertiary notes developing and becoming apparent in the back half of the palate. Decent acids and still some soft tannin providing some scaffolding. I’d like a bit more linearity and persistence in the finish but for a ‘18 it’s darn nice. — a day ago

A nice neat Chianti Classico that is light and yet has a robust taste that has a nice finish.

Feel like this wine is somewhat underrated here. Fairly small producer but a very pleasing wine. Balance and complexity. Would buy again but feel like it is slightly overpriced... — 9 days ago

I like the graphics. It looks like the wallpaper in an Italian restaurant in Philadelphia in 1965. The wine is great, too. I'm sneaking a sip while I cook, and hoping there will be a sip left when I'm done cooking. You ever do that?
I won't break down the flavor profile; it just tastes like solid Sangiovese.

Cherry and smoky aroma, medium body, dry, semi-bitter finish. Paired nicely with rib eye steak. — 3 months ago

Truncated cookout notes. Very Graves like nose with lots of cigar box notes along with rich gravelly scents, and some nice plummy fruit. Not quite as deep on the palate as the nose would suggest (it’s a ‘14) but nice acidity. Finishing a tad short. — 22 days ago

Long day in Tralee working, feels so good to have this cracking Chianti Classico with the Black Cockerell, plums, berries, tobacco, great way to revive... — a month ago

From mag. A gorgeous and lush expressive nose. Roses, black cherry, hints of licorice. A gorgeous wine. Detail and focus and amazing expansive flavors with a glorious long finish. Amazing — 4 months ago
