Nice wine very tight when first tasted. After some aeration /decanting came into its prime. A beautiful. Classic Chianti. The tannins needed to calm down and then all the different nuances came forth. Still at Costco. — 7 days ago

Decanted two hours,

NOSE: dark berries, fresh herbs (mint and bright tobacco), a whiff of mocha. Mild, but pretty darn good.

TASTE: lovely. Cocoa plus both savoury and baking herbs - not much fruit. Like a lighter and more elegant Rioja. 91.

EDIT: I see now that I tried this exact wine two years ago and didn’t like it at all. I presume the difference is the two years of age and the long decant. Maybe the last bottle was off also, who knows - or I was. Anyway, wow - what a difference! — 2 years ago
