Fresh & sappy with loads of dusty cherries and a touch rosemary and thymian. Pretty light on the palate but with a nice tannic grip. Very juicy with a nice uplift toward the end. This is drinking very nicely. — 7 years ago

Tignanello @ Ristiro di Lamole — 10 years ago
Dry with pronounces tannins. Two hours after decanting, it emergences much smoother and rather nice to drink now. Not quite the standard Fontodi CC, but a very enjoyable wine on its own. — 4 years ago
Delicious Chianti with bright cherry notes — 7 years ago
Very good example of Chianti, medium bodied, full of cherry and a long slightly spicy finish — 8 years ago
Really nice. Nose hits right out of the gate. Loads of savory, gravelly minerality, a balsamic note, dried sour cherry underneath. Serious in the mouth. No fruity frivolity here. More on the austere side, with loads of tangy, dark savory notes, good acids, still a bit of puckery tannin. Too demanding to sip on its own but dynamite with a chicken dish that featured lots of herbs and was braised with tons of punchy cherry tomatoes. — 4 years ago

Dark cherry freshness, with a savoury pinch of dried herbs and a deeper, darker whiff of mushrooms / undergrowth / roast. Very pure & enticing.
On the palate this show v. nice balance and great freshness (2019!). Nice dark, sweet cherry with brambly, juicy (and nicely polished) tannins, fresh acidity and a herby, savoury finish.
A very proper classic Chianti - finally balanced after all these super hot vintages. — 2 years ago
