The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators
-
Appearance & Nose
01This La Forra Chianti Classico Gran Selezione presents a luminous, deep ruby hue, hinting at its substantial character. The nose is an intricate tapestry of ripe black cherry and subtle notes of violet, intertwined with an alluring whisper of Mediterranean herbs and a touch of refined leather.

Palate & Finish
02On the palate, it unfolds with a vibrant acidity and firm, yet elegant, tannins that provide a substantial structure, leading to a wonderfully persistent finish. The flavors echo the nose, with an intensified expression of dark fruit, earthy undertones, and a lingering warmth that speaks of its Tuscan terroir.

At the Table
03This Gran Selezione is an exquisite companion to classic Florentine steak, slow-braised wild boar ragu, aged Pecorino cheese, or a hearty mushroom risotto. It also shines alongside rich lamb dishes, enhancing their savory depths.
