Chianti Classico Vigneto Gran Selezione San Lorenzo
The Tasting
-
Appearance & Nose
01The Castello di Ama Chianti Classico Vigneto Gran Selezione San Lorenzo presents a luminous ruby red, deepening to garnet at the rim, with no effervescence. Its bouquet is an intricate tapestry of sun-drenched cherry, wild strawberry, and a whisper of dried violet, interwoven with notes of damp earth and a subtle balsamic undertone.

Palate & Finish
02On the palate, this Sangiovese-driven wine is powerfully structured yet elegantly refined, offering a vibrant acidity that balances the ripe red fruit and savory undertones of leather and mineral. The finish is exceptionally long and persistent, leaving a lingering impression of spice and a touch of Mediterranean herbs. This Gran Selezione is a superb companion to classic Tuscan fare, ideal with slow-cooked lamb shoulder, hearty wild boar ragu, aged Pecorino cheese, or a simple yet satisfying grilled Florentine steak. It also shines alongside truffle-infused pasta dishes.
