Tasting - Gabriella Chianti
Name: Gabriella Chianti
Variety: Chianti blend
Region: Tuscany
Country: Italy
Year: 2008
Price: $7.95
Winery Review: This beautiful wine has the very deep red, almost purple, color that you would expect in a Chianti. The first thing you notice is the fruit, balanced by a bit of spice. It's a good dry wine with a bold flavor. Even with it's boldness, this Chianti is velvety smooth.
My Review: A dark color and a bold aroma are the first impressions of this wine. A strong earthy flavor was a bit too much for my taste.
I tasted this wine on its own, without food.
