Not much fermentation activity but wine is still quite yeasty. #1 Alex on 2007-12-24 03:46 (Reply) April 1 sampled first bottle. Nice medium dry chianti. Tannins are detectable but not prominent. fruity bouquet with some earthy tones. Needs further aging. #2 Alex on 2008-04-10 22:57 (Reply) Add Comment Name Email Homepage In reply to [ Top level ]#1: Alex on 2007-12-24 03:46 #2: Alex on 2008-04-10 22:57 Comment Enclosing asterisks marks text as bold (*word*), underscore are made via _word_.
