Score: ✧✧✧ |
This Chianti shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of garnet red,
moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean and pleasing aromas
that start with hints of cherry and plum followed by aromas of cyclamen,
violet, toasted wood, vanilla, licorice and carob. The mouth has good
correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and however balanced
by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with
flavors of cherry and plum. This Chianti is a kosher wine.
