Wine Review: This ruby red Chianti opens with a mild black currant and gentle oak bouquet with a hint of black cherry. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced, and very easy to drink. The flavor profile is a mild black cherry and black currant with slightly integrated oak and a touch of minernality. The finish is dry and its moderate tannins are noticeable, but not overwhelming. This Chianti is a good value wine and would pair well with meat lasagna. Enjoy - Ken
