89 pts. Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar: Jul/Aug 2010
Bright red. Highly floral nose of redcurrant, sour red cherry and minerals shows a light, vinous quality. Then bright and mouthwatering on the palate, with a piercing laser beam of acidity lifting the delicate pomegranate and redcurrant flavors. Finishes fresh and long, with youthfully chewy tannins and lingering red fruit and violet notes. Typical fresh Chianti that’s just begging for you to start eating.

Tight, linear, tonic and firm, this textbook Sangiovese opens a window on Chianti Classico tradition and territory. It’s an authentic wine on every level, from the purity of its aromas to its natural pairing ease with all sorts of meat and pasta dishes.
