Wine 52: Chianti

Yet another example of a wine I ordered because they only listed one varietal in the description. I must not have been paying attention because it is a Chianti and therefore must be a blend. I really need to pay more attention to my ordering, though in this case I don't regret it because it is a really good wine.

Tenuta Santedame, 2007 Chianti Classico
color: garnet red
aroma: berry, oak, floral
taste: It was medium dry and well balanced. There was raspberry, oak, and tart cherry all of which made for a decent amount of complexity.
rating: very very good, not great but close (I have unrealistic standards)
