Quite dark on color. A bit brooding in Aaron as well with subdued, inky, black fruits and not a lot of complexity at the moment. This should age well and needs more time in bottle, for me.

Nice, but when I want to drink Chianti, I want to drink Chianti. Not quite "new world", but more fruit, less tannin and less acid than I would want. Also lacking that unmistakable dusty/herbal Sangiovese character. Still a solid wine, maybe my expectations are too high.

Funky banana bread on the nose out of the bottle. Blew off and became funky drinkable. Not my favorite Classico.
