The Tasting

A guided note in three moments, by our curators

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    This Gran Selezione presents a vibrant ruby red, hinting at its youthful energy, with subtle garnet reflections as it catches the light. The nose is an intoxicating embrace of ripe black cherry and wild plum, interwoven with delicate notes of violet and a whisper of dried tobacco.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, the wine unfolds with a profound depth, revealing a structured yet supple tannin that coats the mouth beautifully. The finish is impressively long and persistent, leaving a lingering sensation of sun-drenched earth and a hint of bitter almond.

  3. At the Table

    03

    This Effe 55 Chianti Classico is a magnificent companion for slow-cooked lamb ragu, grilled Florentine steak, or a rich mushroom risotto. It also excels alongside aged Pecorino Toscano cheese or as a contemplative sipper after a hearty Tuscan feast.
