Sergio Zingarelli Chianti Classico Gran Selezione
The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators
-
Appearance & Nose
01This Chianti Classico Gran Selezione presents a vibrant ruby red, hinting at its youthful energy, with delicate legs that gracefully trace the glass. The nose unfolds with an intoxicating bouquet of ripe black cherry and wild blackberry, interwoven with sophisticated notes of dried violet, subtle leather, and a whisper of Tuscan garrigue.

Palate & Finish
02On the palate, it offers a beautifully balanced expression of Sangiovese, showcasing firm yet supple tannins that provide structure without harshness. The finish is long and resonant, echoing the dark fruit and earthy undertones with a pleasing, dry persistence.

At the Table
03This wine would be exquisite alongside a classic bistecca alla fiorentina, slow-braised wild boar ragu, or mature Pecorino cheese. It also excels when paired with roasted lamb with rosemary and garlic, or a rustic mushroom risotto.
