The precision and pencil lead generated a Bordeaux vibe-driven Sangiovese that was so long and perfectly tart I was tasting this half hour after the last drop. Majestic sour cherries in one of the nicest CC-GSs I’ve ever had. Needed 45 min decant. Props to @Jay Kline on this one: “Bravissimo” indeed! — 17 days ago

Dry. Flavors of dried black cherry, peppercorn, roasted red pepper, cured meat, cinnamon, leather, tobacco. Medium-rich, chewy tannins. Wow!

Too young but still very nice with a 5h decant - suggest checking back in another 3-5 years. Tannins are very present, but the fruit and earth are very nice. Good acid too, especially for a hot vintage. — 13 days ago

Intense and still young chianti which started blossoming after 2hrs in the decanter. Spiced red fruit bonanza with black tea and forst floor. Very long and intense. Served with Italian Peposo beef stew, a sublime combination . — a month ago

Deep Ruby color with aromas of red/black fruits, floral and smoky oak. On the palate flavors of blackberry, cherry and plum flavors with garden herb notes, cacao, tobacco and toasty notes from 18 months of oak aging. Fine ripe tannins you can bite into, long finish ending with fruit and an earthy smoky spice character. Nice! Will age! — 2 months ago

Beautiful and classic Gran Selezione Chianti. Truly top-notch and just $48.50. Cherry followed by an astringent Chianti bite in the finish. — 20 days ago

Expressive and drinking beautifully, this is where Chianti is headed if this producer's lead is mimicked Another Tuscan with great price/value relationship — 3 months ago
