Winery review: Ruby red. Intense aroma that hints of violets. Dry and well balanced with black fruit flavors followed by a long finish. Placido Primavera Chianti is the perfect accompaniment to meats, pastas and spicy foods.
My review: This Chianti is smoky, earthy, and light bodied. The finish doesn't seem to stick around for too long, in my opinion. It's fairly dry, but it isn't overly acidic. I would really like to try this wine with food to discover how it's flavors and aromas are affected.
I did not have this wine with food.
