A bit compact and simple, but showing decent Chianti classical characters: sour cherry and plum with earthy minerals, medium to high acidity and resolving tannins. Can’t ask for more for a $12 bottle.

From T. J. Light and quite elegant. Reminds me of a Pinot.
Forget the description on the back it stinks.
Cherry mostly and delicate spice. Quite tannic! 13.5%. This does not come across as Riserva material but for 13$? Juicy. A steal from T.J. Despite the heavy load of tannins a drink now wine give it 30 min of air!
