Appearance & Nose

Palate & Finish
02On the palate, the wine presents a beautifully balanced acidity and fine-grained tannins that create a silken texture. The flavors echo the nose, with a persistent finish of dark fruit, earth, and a subtle, lingering spice. This Chianti Classico Gran Selezione would be a sublime accompaniment to slow-cooked lamb ragu, grilled Florentine steak, or a rustic wild boar stew. It also shines with aged Pecorino Toscano cheese and a platter of cured meats.
