A very nice and rounded Chianti, not as good as the 2010, however, but very soft tannins and nicely textured

Jan 8th, 2020I always love tasting this wine. Tobacco, wilted basil, black plum, game and pepper. Round and caressing, yet still expressive of Sangiovese’s herby character. A favorite in the Antinori portfolio.

Feb 8th, 2018This is second time following 2010 vintage. This is also good. Oak and fruity aroma with juicy taste from black fruits. A bit spicy and vanilla flavor which is this winery's special. 1 hour, found sweetness in aroma. @5200, Tuscany-TH, 171008-180512
