Вяленая вишня, сухофрукты, сладкие красные цветы, пионы. Тело умеренно полное, вкус более цветочный, с миндальным оттенком, пряный. Вполне. 15.5/20 (87/00)

Ripe and a little on the modern side, but still very enjoyable especially considering how young it is.

I think this might have been a little shaken from the shipment, and showed a little jammy. It was still very good with the food and had great acidity.

Seems pruney. Not typical, especially for Rocca di Montegrossi. Too bad, because there's lots of good Chianti flavor under the overripeness.
