"un Chianti dovrebbe essere fiore e terra, con qualche bagliore di amarena, forse, ma soprattutto fiore e terra.
Dovrebbe essere dritto e schietto, serpigno, schivo e anche un po' ignorante. Un signore dal bel gesto asciutto senza giri di parole, di una sua stilizzata eleganza.
E poi, quando potrà sedersi in poltrona, per riposarsi di questa sua tensione, dovrebbe accarezzarti con piccoli sbuffi di dolceacre tabacco e farti intravedere vaghe tentazioni nostalgiche di funghi e terriccio.
Fidato nelle tavolate, ma sempre pronto a menare le mani e tagliuzzarti lingua e palato per rimetterti a posto." GB2003

"..a Chianti should be flower and earth, with some shine of amarena, perhaps, but above all flower and earth.
It should be straight and sincere, bashful(?), "snaky" and also some(bit) ignorant.
A gentleman with a beautiful dry gesture, a man of few words, a man with his own stylized elegance.
And then (=aging), when it will finally take a seat in his armchair, to rest from this tension , it should caress you with small puffs of bittersweet tobacco and make You glimpse some vague nostalgic temptations of mushrooms and soil. Best friend on Your table but always ready to fight and shred your tongue and palate to put You in Your place."

As usual the translation is not as good as the italian...
Sorry !
