Expert Review: Ruby red color with purple reflections. Intense vinous bouquet with hints of violets
and dark cherry fruit. The flavor is full of ripe fruit and a hint of spice. It
is well balanced and dry. The finish is persistent and satisfying.
My Review: The Chianti was a deep red, almost purple color.
The aroma carried raspberry and black currant with hints of spicy pepper.
During the mid-palate this wine was more watery than expected due to the strong
aroma. The raspberry dried the mouth out and lead to the peppery aftertaste
which lingered for 30 seconds.
Food: This wine was tasted with no food due to tasting it at
the Vintage Cellar.
