Offers linearity and elegance in the place of brawn and might. The aromas are not extremely intense but they do focus on cherry and almond amaretto with a dash of exotic spice. Toasted flavors appear in the mouth and the wine ends with a fresh, spicy finish.——M.L.(3/1/2008)—— 87

Round up front, with an earthy, leathery nose housing solid red fruit that’s comfortable and familiar. Both plum and raspberry work the palate, and then comes toast, chocolate and smooth tannins. Not overpowering but it’s in equilibrium.——M.S.(10/1/2006)—— 88

Spicy and raw at first, with cinnamon, clove and hard-cheese aromas. Quickly things turn to red cherry, raspberry and vanilla, while the lasting notes consist of mature red fruit and toast. Standard Chianti the way it should be.——W.E.(4/1/2005)—— 88
