Decent. Basic Chianti. No frills. A good “second bottle” for the night. (& Habeeb wine. Okay to buy again. 3.5)

Good house type wine. Perfect for homemade pizza with the kids.

The tannins still seem underripe, but I hope this will be great in a couple of years. Strawberry, currant, cherry, violet, and thyme with medium body and finish

Medium garnet. Lots of red fruit on the nose and in particular strawberries hit you like a ton of bricks. There is some residual sugar. Low tannin, but these are underripe. The bottle could use another few years before it hits its full potential.

Great wine pick for the price! Smooth without the traditional bite of a blended wine. Mild tannins for a red wine Chianti. Fruity.
