Vintage Cellar Review: 

"A heck of a value in Chianti, this delicious blend of 90% Sangiovese, 7% Canaiolo, and 3% Colorino offers up notes of licorice, new saddle leather, black cherry and berry fruit, loamy soil undertones and a touch of pepper and herbs. It is medium-bodied, savory and best drunk over the next several years."

Personal Review: 

This wine had a nice red color. I also liked the smell-- very smokey with hints of herbs. The taste was very nice because I definitely tasted the fruit but it was balanced with an equally if not overwhelming spice. I also liked the dry finish. 

Cheers,
