Vintage Wine Tastings: Codirosso (Chianti)















Name: Codirosso (Chianti)


Category:  90% Sangiovese, 7% Lanaiolo,
3% Colorino


Region Tuscany, Italy



Year: 2015



Price: $13

Winery Review:A heck of a value in Chianti, this delicious blend of 90% Sangiovese, 7% Canaiolo and 3% Colorino offers up notes of licorice, new saddle leather, black cherry and berry fruit, loamy soil undertones and a touch of pepper and herbs. It is medium-bodied, savory and best drunk over the next several years."

My Review: Even though I am not a big fan of Chianti, I liked this one because of the presence of fruity flavors. I liked how even though it was filled with cherry like flavors, it still had earthy tones to it. It had aromas of spice and herbs which made me like it.
