Varieties: Primarily Sangiovese plus some other local varieties
Region: Chianti
Vintage: 2011
Colour: Ruby red with an orange/pinky meniscus
Alcohol: 13.0%
Bouquet: Sour cherry with an almost cocktail cherry smell, young cut twigs
Flavour: A bit plummy with savoury, dried herbs (oregano?) in the blend. Rather short in length and a quite simple
Points: 82 (3+6+11+6+6+50)
Notes: This was the loser of our tasting. Interestingly, K tasted the 2009 vintage here. Remarkably, here it costs $15 (~300 Kc) which is three times the price of it in the US!
