Villa Pomona Bandini Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG 2016 Review

Earthy and funky, with some unctuous mushroom vibes. It also smells like cherries and tea. Nice depth on the palate, with edgy tannins framing the wine. There is a bitter note on the finish, giving the impression that the tannins are still softening.
