“Very earthy, with lots of dried violets, cherry and liquorice. Plenty of evolution resulting in a gamey aroma. Full mouth coating of dark, brooding fruit. The palate is beautifully savoury, with broard shouldered tannins. Relatively cooler year given the decade that follows, but still a warm and sunny vintage yielding a rich, ripe structure. Acidity is still fresh. This is an impressively aged Chianti with classical varietal depth and concentration.”
