The Tasting

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    This Chianti Classico Gran Selezione presents a vibrant ruby red hue, hinting at its youthful vigor and promising a complex aromatic journey. The nose is immediately captivating, revealing layers of ripe cherry, subtle violet, and an earthy undertone of dried herbs characteristic of Sangiovese.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, it unfolds with a delightful balance of fruit-forward intensity and refined structure, showcasing fine-grained tannins that lead to a persistent, elegant finish. The wine possesses a well-defined acidity that cleanses the palate, leaving behind lingering notes of crushed berries and a whisper of leather. This exceptional wine would be a perfect companion to classic Tuscan dishes such as Bistecca alla Fiorentina, wild boar ragu with pappardelle, or a hearty lentil soup. It also shines alongside aged Pecorino cheese or grilled lamb chops with rosemary.
