Riserva Chianti Sangiovese
Chianti, Tuscany, Italy
Oakiness dominates. Not super strong juicy fruits. Ripe berries.

A little too acidic. Some off-notes.

Feb 16th, 2017Surprisingly decent bottle of Chianti (not Classico, of course). Initially bought for cooking but ended up drinking it. Not a bad wine for the price. Without overgeneralisation (hopefully), most cheap American or Australian wine are extremely sweet; cheap French wine tends to be bland and watery. When it comes to bargain, it's hard to beat Italy, Spain, or Chile.
