Luiano 2015 Chianti Classico, $11.99-$13.99, 89 points, poured a shimmering sienna purple/red color with a broad clear wine ring and moderate legs.
Aromas were soft floral notes with smells of tea and sea.
Medium-bodied with good acidity and a round mouth-feel of tannin managed a balanced smorgasbord of cherry fruit, black tea and olives, flowers, and truffles.
Finished long on the trailing palate, invigorating pepper spices, and a restrained 13% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with our meatball subs.
