Sipping Fine Wine

Deep red this wine a blend of Sangiovese with a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon sets off aromas of elegant berry fruit with wild flower notes. The palate is complex with sweet red berries, an array of spices, some leather and oak, very balanced, with a touch of earthiness. Very smooth tannins with an elegant finish. Still developing!

Epic wine (comparing to other Chianti Classico Gran Selezione). Subtle, elegant, very balanced with power and softness in the same time.

From magnum. Decanted for 3 hours. Gorgeous bright cherry and raspberry fruit flavor with good acidity. Paired with the fried shrimp and chicken parm nicely.

Deep, Bing cherry red; big cherry top note; more cherries with blackberry and earthy notes followed by silky tannins. Fully flavorful, but still a bit tight.
