Tasting - Gabriella Chianti


Gabriella Chianti 
Variety:  Chianti
Region:  Tuscany
Country:  Italy
Year:  2008
Price:  $7.95
Shop Review:  This beautiful wine has the very deep red, almost purple, color that you would expect in a Chianti. The first thing you notice is the fruit, balanced by a bit of spice. It’s a good dry wine with a bold flavor. Even with it’s boldness, this Chianti is velvety smooth.
Personal Review:  Smell is kind of overpowering but can't place it, almost alcoholic.  Absolutely awful.  Dry and leaves feeling parched.  Definitely taste of spice but bad.
Food Paring:  Not tasted with food
