The Tasting
-
Appearance & Nose
01This Chianti Classico Gran Selezione presents a luminous, medium ruby hue with subtle garnet reflections, hinting at its age and Sangiovese's inherent character. The nose is a captivating tapestry of ripe black cherry, wild raspberry, and earthy undertones of dried herbs and a whisper of tobacco leaf.

Palate & Finish
02On the palate, it delivers a beautifully structured and savory experience, with firm yet refined tannins that coat the tongue with a pleasant grip. The finish is long and persistent, echoing the fruit and savory notes with a mineral-driven elegance that lingers. This wine is an exceptional companion for classic Tuscan dishes like Bistecca alla Fiorentina, Pappardelle al Cinghiale, or a hearty Osso Buco. It would also be delightful with aged Pecorino cheese or a slow-cooked lamb shoulder.
