Falchini "TitolatO Colombaia" 2021 Chianti Colli Senesi D.O.C.G., $16.00-$20.00, 86 points, poured pomegranate red with orange highlights, sticky clear legs, and a bright meniscus.
Aromas of smoky mulberry with hints of dried herbs and cocoa were pleasant if one dimensional.
Flavors of black tea and licorice were dominate here, this Chianti was a tad bitter, typically tannic with high acidity on a medium body.
Finished intense with cayenne pepper and a touch of red raspberry; alcohol was a balanced 14%.
Paired poorly with our cheese pizza.
Sadly, in a brilliant vintage this Chianti was a disappointment for me, and maybe it just needs a few more years to mellow out.
Chianti/Brunello/Morellino Di Scansano/Vino Nobile 2021 A Very Good Year
