Deep richness - nothing shy here. More developed/tertiary characters than one would suspect for the age. Tannin still chewy. Sometimes I ask myself what Sangiovese wines are like, and I want to say that smelling a wine from Chianti or Montalcino or Montepulciano is like taking freshly tilled soil in your hands.
