The Tasting
-
Appearance & Nose
01From the glass, this Chianti Classico Gran Selezione presents a vibrant ruby red, deepening to garnet at the rim, with no hint of effervescence. Its bouquet is a captivating symphony of dried cherry, wild violet, and a subtle earthy undertone of forest floor, hinting at its Sangiovese soul.

Palate & Finish
02On the palate, the wine unfolds with a firm, yet elegant structure, offering notes of ripe plum, a touch of balsamic, and a whisper of black pepper that lingers. The finish is remarkably persistent, dry and savory, leaving a delightful mineral complexity that speaks of its Tuscan terroir. This distinguished wine is a perfect companion for slow-cooked lamb shoulder with rosemary, a classic Florentine steak, pappardelle with wild boar ragu, or aged Pecorino cheese.
