About

"The 2009 Chianti is a soft, sensual wine with generous fruit and an open, inviting personality. The fresh, vinous style is best appreciated upon release. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2013."

Product Description:

"The 2008 Chianti is a very serious wine for the money. The floral aromatics render an impression of accessibility but the darkness and richness of the fruit that follow hint at a far more important pedigree. Dark red berries, flowers and minerals add the final notes of complexity on the impressive finish. This is one of the most rewarding wines readers will find under $10. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2014."
