Chiantis can be a bit too loud, like an Italian kitchen on gravy day. This one is anything but: a markedly shy chianti but nonetheless delicious. Very timid tannins and not much finish, but the flavors here are nice and friendly: subtle cherry (not too fruit forward) with hints of wood and pool chlorine (nicer than it sounds). A tart back end hits you for just a moment. Far better than some other reviews would have you think.
