Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of dinner. It’s been several years since I last checked in on the 2015 Gran Selezione and I’m pleased to report that it continues to trend in a very lovely direction. The wine pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of Morello cherry, red flowers, black tea, red rope licorice, a touch of leather, warm spices, and dry organic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. Fully open for business and will remain so for many years to come. Drink now through 2040. — 4 days ago

Ruby in color with medium plus intensity and a wide reddish/ brick rim.

Red fruits on the nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with red and black fruits, light oak, spices, chocolates, licorice, vinaigrette, earth, forest floor, soy sauce and peppercorn.

Medium finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 11 year old Sangiovese is drinking nicely now. Elegant and nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel.

Complex, entertaining and a good food wine.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Had the 2023 in January of 2025. First sip out of the glass was strange. Kind of sour fruit, butter and wood. Gave it time to breathe and swirled in the glass and then it was really good. Light fruits- dark cherry and blackberry. Hints of wood and leather in the finish. I always tend to jump right in. Have a decanter but don’t always head to it based on other people’s comments, I probably should have! But time in the glass was kind. Was a very interesting wine that I would love to have again. — 2 years ago

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Beautiful nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing blueberries, black currants, cooked cherries, light oak, spices, dark chocolates, light earth, espresso, tobacco leaf, herbs and peppercorn.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a delicious Sangiovese from Tuscany. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Complex and engaging, soft and elegant.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 30 minutes in the bottle.

This 16 year old Chianti Gran Selezione is drinking at its peak now, and will continue to do so in the next few years.

Wine Enthusiasts 95 points. Wine Spectator 92 points.

A gorgeous sipping wine that also paired nicely with my Elk Bolognese with Pappardelle pasta.

A blend of 90% Sangiovese with 10% Merlot and Colorino.

A little too fresh to compete with an aged brunello but a good wine. Would probably just have a Chianti riserva for better value. — a month ago

Went over to L&J's house and he just happened to have almost the same chianti as we had last night. But this vintage was fruitier and brighter than the 21. Or at least, fruitier and brighter than what was left of the 21 from last night. — 2 years ago

100% Sangiovese. Deep ruby color. Quite noticeable aromas of bramble berries, black cherry, spice and vanilla. The very busy pallet features fresh and dried black cherry/berry, black licorice, blood, tobacco and herbs. A bit of spice on the very long finish. Quite savory, concentrated and medium/full bodied. This one can stand up to hearty and robust foods. Thank You Keith S! Revisited in September 2023. Still excellent! — 4 years ago
