Estimate
Tremendous... Vertical and explosive on the palate.. a huge wine. Black cherry, plum, graphite, licorice and dark spices emerge.. A host of violet, lavender, menthol and dark spices wrap around the huge, tightly wound finish.
A succulent Chianti Classico showing dried-fruit and cedar character. Full, chewy and very long with a juicy finish. So structured. Pure sangiovese from Fontodi's best vineyard and aged 24 months in wood. Serious.
A mix of leather, earth and black cherry flavors segue into an aftertaste of tobacco, iron and tea notes in this complex, beefy red. The tannins are rustic.
