Decent QPR #chianticlassico - Deep magenta-purple hue in glass. Uncorks pretty tight but scent evolves nicely in wine fridge over a few days. Mellow dry cherry, leather, tilled earth aromas. Medium-body, laid back dark fruit taste, toasted oak and some grippy tannins finishing with lithe acidity. Not too bad for ~$10 at Costco though I might prefer more fruit + acidity for creamy pasta pairings.
