Isole e Olena Chianti Classico
Another beautifully coloured wine, a rich but not opaque garnet red hue. The nose has firm, dense fruit and evidence of new oak, but it closes down after a short while to reveal very little.

A firm, masculine structure on the palate, with lots of texture and weight on the attack, and plenty of spicy tannins coming through from the midpalate onwards. The fruit is hiding a little at the moment, but this clearly won't always be the case.
