Red Wine	Score: ✧✧✭

Chianti Classico Bello Stento shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean and pleasing aromas that start with hints of black cherry, raspberry and cyclamen followed by aromas of violet, juniper and plum. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and pleasing crispness, however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is pretty persistent with flavors of black cherry and raspberry. This wine ages for 6 months in steel tanks.
