Winery review: A blend of Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Trebbiano and Malvasia del Chianti. Rich and modern, with a dark, saturated color and aromas of graham cracker and lemon rind. A juicy palate packed with plum and raspberry is carried by a creamy texture that’s rather toasty in terms of flavor. The finish is round, full and chocolaty.
My review: The only nose I got off this wine was pepper. A lot of pepper. The taste was very dry and instantly dried out my tongue. Way too dry for me. You could taste the tanic structure all the way through but no real flavor or finish.
This was tasted without food
