Drank 1/2/18. Paired with lasagne.
Light to medium nose of red cherry and some earth. Sour cherry, tar, earth and medium plus tannins make up the flavor profile that is a touch thin, but enjoyable. Dry, medium finish with sour cherry and wood spice.
3/21/7/3/3 + 50 = 87 pts.

For the price you can't beat it! I was pleasantly surprised how good it is. I will be making a trip back to trader joes for more once I'm done tasting the 5 others purchased to test

For $5, really can’t complain about this #chianticlassicoriserva. Good expression of varietal character, earthy spice; not much more aromatics but tartness and fruit are nicely balanced - paired happily with vegetable lasagna.

Roasted tomato, dried herbs, red cherry. Mouth watering acidity with high tannins and a long finish.

Very Italian style label. Lovely color. Ruby garnet. Smells clean. Cherries and pencil shavings. Flavor is decent if a bit thin. It’s a standard and passable Chianti.
