2011 Badia a Coltibuono Cetamura Chianti

Published: May 25, 2013 · Modified: Dec 23, 2016 by Editor ·

Nothing special with this one, but it's only $8.99 so I can't ding it too hard.  I just didn't find a lot of flavor here.  It's really a light bodied red, lighter than I expected, and turns into a very basic, singular Chianti.  For every day spaghetti night, bring it on.  For much else, look elsewhere.

Searching for flavor as it hits the palate.  You get a bit of cherry.  After some air (because this wine is so young), you start to get a bit more red fruit, and the wine softens up a tad.  It's 90% Sangiovese with the rest Canaiolo.  A little earth and a pretty dry finish.

Nothing too memorable for me, and a bottle I would probably pass on.
