  Flawless. This is what I look for in a Chianti. The intertwined licorice, cherry, mahogany, and leather that remains as inviting from first taste to last glass.

  (Decanted for one and a half hour)
  Nice and warm fruitiness with maturing notes of liquorice and truffles and some violets and sweetness on the intense finish.

  (Decanted first one hour)
  Deep red colour with a lovely maturing nose showing liquorice, soil and sweet cherries and a touch of herbs. Smoothing tannins on the palate still showing fruit sweetness and some herbs on the mid before showing some dried fruit on the finish.

  15 YEARS. And you smell it too when open. Ita giving out lot of rubberglu. And old barn. Must let it bread fore a while. Dark,DARK with Brown tones. Still some Mature cherrys, BUT more rusty nut. Smooth tannins. A very good wine after a while. IT had been a perfekt follower too veal-BEEF. But we enjoyed it Just fore celebrating a varm summer eve on the terrasse.
  But wine was in time fore drink UP.

  (Decanted for two hours)
  Maturing nose showing tertiary notes of leather, truffles and some warmer cherry fruit in a very pleasant way. Palate still showing some austere tannins and with a nice and fresh warmer fruit and a balanced long finish.
