A Chianti to try if you've never understood the older style of the species. Deeply scented, flavoured and polished, it's a classy expression of the region made from 90% sangiovese with 10% of canaiolo and colorino with 18 months inside French oak. Rustic, briary aromas of dark plums and cherries, dark chocolates and minerals reveal notes of mineral, roasting meats and licorice. Long, smooth and complete, it's artfully balanced, sporting a handsome drive of sourt-edged fruit and finely integrated, drying tannins wrapped in refreshing acids. Enjoy now or later.
