Tasting- Bell’Agio Chianti

Name:  Bell’Agio Chianti
Variety:  Chianti
Region:  Chianti Region in Central Tuscany
Country: Italy
Year: 2014
Price: $ 11.49
Vivino Review:   Tasty! Much red fruit, especially raspberry and young cherry. Smooth and very reserved- not too bold or offensive.
My Review:  This wine had a musty, tobacco and smoky fragrance.  The color is a glistening red cherry with a hue of purple. This is medium bodied Chianti, with nicely balanced tannins and acidity.  The taste is earthy, ripe berry and smooth smoky finish.  There is a spicy aftertaste in the throat, which is quite enjoyable.  This Chianti would be the perfect paired with a spicy red sauce. I highly recommend this Chianti if you are looking for a earthy, smooth red with a spicy kick at the end !
