The tannins are SUPER firm. Needs a decant and some food. Great earthy notes.

Delicious! Old shcool earthiness, minerality with mouth watering fruit in great balance. My favorite Chianti Classico of all time.

For me this is one of the finest CC there is, fine and smooth tannins and lots of dark fruit. Big impressive nose and lots of potential for the upcoming decade. But great to enjoy now. Love it. Serve it cool!

Cherries and a bit of strawberry with cedar and sage. Good breadth with unfiltered look and bright acid.

This is Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese, more deep and delicious.
