| Chateau/Producer: | Barone Ricasoli | | Wine Name: | Formulae | | Country: | Italy | | State: | Tuscany | | AOC: | Indicazione Geografica Tipica | | Region: | Chianti | | Wine Score: | 85 | | Notes: | The color of this wine is a deep garnet, almost black unless there is light behind it. The bouquet is medium strength with berry notes. This is a nice, drinkable red, with a good dose of tannins and some acids to balance. The main fruit note is cherry. There is a bit of a bitter aftertaste, like when you accidentally lick your fingers after applying bug spray. However, with food this is less noticeable. At the price, this is a good table wine. | | Tasting Date: | 2004-08-23 | | Varietal: | primarily Sangiovese | | Price US$: | 9.00 | | Source: | Calandro's (Perkins), Baton Rouge, LA |
