Wine Tasting - Bell'agio Chianti

Name: Bell'agio Chianti
Variety: Chianti
Region: Castellana
Country: Italy
Year: 2012
Price: $12

Wine Review: "Very subtle aromas of berry (cherry and cranberry) lead you into a very middle of the road red wine.  Good tannins will pair well with red meat or a saucy pasta."

My Review:  I had a hard time believing I'd enjoy this wine after smelling it.  I got a strong chemical smell almost like wet paint.  After tasting it I really enjoyed it's body and hotness of it. This wine also had a woody taste to it.
