16.5/20 (90/100) Ещё одно вино, выдержка которому пошла на пользу. Аромат усложнился: спелые ягоды черешни, чернослив, зелёный чай и ваниль. Довольно тельное с умеренной кислотностью и неслабыми, но мелкозернистыми по текстуре танинами. Во вкусе есть сладость, которая, скорее, мешает. (06.09.2018) — 6 years ago

This is excellent! And I thought it was cool that I just happened to be reading about Mona Lisa! I guess this wine was bottled at Fattoria La Ripa owned in the 15th century by the one and only Mona Lisa! The label recalls Leonardo's typical back to front handwriting. It's actually very light for a Chianti. Very good! — 9 years ago
