The Tasting

Appearance & Nose
01This Chianti Classico Gran Selezione presents a luminous ruby red, deepening to garnet at the rim, with no effervescence. The nose is an intoxicating bouquet of ripe cherry, wild raspberry, and a whisper of Tuscan herbs, underscored by subtle notes of leather and tobacco leaf.

Palate & Finish
02On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and elegantly structured, revealing a vibrant acidity that balances the rich fruit and silky tannins. The finish is remarkably persistent, a lingering dance of dark fruit, earthy undertones, and a hint of minerality. Perfectly suited for a classic Florentine steak, roasted lamb with rosemary, a hearty wild boar ragu, or a mature Pecorino cheese. This wine also shines alongside a traditional Tuscan ribollita.
