I had expected a lot of this chianti based on what I heard from others, but found myself disappointed with this mid-priced wine. The flavour is similar to most cabernet sauvignons. There is certainly a flavour of cedar and blackcurrant, the former imparting a mild spiciness. It is fairly dry. Pretty alright for the price, but I'd rather check out some other of Italy's wine before picking up another bottle.

To start off, this wine is awfully sweet with a very intense fruity flavor. Some apple, balckberry, and vanilla hints with a grape taste similar to that of Concord grape wines. I wasn't much of a fan and it mixed disharmoniously with my family's recipe of meatball and cheese soup.

This portuguese wine is surprisingly excellent for the price -- lusciously smooth taste that would go well even with lighter meats or by itself. It is mellow and mildy sweet, not all that dry, comparable to a good merlot. I very much enjoyed this and purchased another bottle today.

I got the box, as I drink wine every night and the boxes tend to maintain flavour longer and are cheaper. The scent is very sharp, and not very far behind the flavor. There is a spicy aftertaste that lingers a while. It tastes and smells very mildly of acetic acid (vinegar), and is very dry, just barely sweet.
