Good value from TJs — 9 months ago
Great wine indeed. Nose is complex, camphor, dry amarena cherry, some flint, no oxidation not fading on this bottle yet.
On the palate, Fruit is gone for this bottle, wine is dominated by its tannic structure that is on the dry side, almost austere. I was expecting a fleshier, mellower tannin. Dry herbs, dry raisins, cherry again.
Long finish, good acidity that’s keeps the wine alive and well going.
Mitigate the intensity with proteins and juice/sauce.
Osso bucco with prunes will work. We did Fiorentina and it was ok. The crust and smokiness did not help, over exhibiting the dryness of tannins. — 9 years ago

An OK Chianti. Widely available. — 7 months ago
2021 vintage.
Sangiovese 60 % and Cabernet Sauvignon 40 % from Pitigliano estate in Maremma, Tuscany with a southwest exposure.
Owned by Tommasi family since 1997.
Rompicolla is ‘breakneck’ but means tremendously steep and slippery slope…a risky adventure.
Soils are deep in volcanic tuff.
Stainless steel ferment and matured 1 year in 65 HL Slavonian oak casks.
Red cherries, raspberries, savoury spice, and floral.
Medium bodied but fresh and clean on the finish.
This wine loves food ….and I appreciate that. — 9 months ago
Beautiful rust color. Earthy, dry, subtle notes of stewed cherry, dirt, cocoa powder, pomegranate, & subtle coffee. More fruit forward than I remember. Dry, tannic finish. Medium acidity. — 8 years ago
A nice dry chianti red wine good with steaks or pasta. — 9 years ago
Such a pleasure to see this on I Sodi's wine list. Will never not buy. — 9 years ago
Light body and very "Pinot Noir" like. Bright red cherry and strawberry flavors. Mild tannins and light oak. Hint of smoke. Refreshing. Chill it a bit below cellar temp. Great story about the winery. A Mt. Etna lava flow just went around them 30 years ago. — 10 years ago
One of my favorites! Velvety fruit of black cherry, with edges of wild mint and herbs and a leathery quality that is just beginning to show. This is Rabaja fruit through and through. So decadent and rich with gentle tannin (gentle for Nebbiolo, that is). — 11 years ago
Almost as good as the chianti in Paris — 13 years ago
Simple and classic chianti but that’s about it. Cherry red fruit and light oakiness. — 8 months ago
