The 2011 Gran Selezione is a rich, powerful Chianti on the darker side profile wise. Cloves and blackberries on the palate. Sustains well.

Blindly we are somewhere between Rhône (alcoholic and solar sensation) and Bordeaux (breeding), with a slightly less dry approach. Superb complex, intense and mesmerising nose. In the mouth the body is concentrated, the tannins are finer than expected, on notes consistent with the nose. Perfectly ready to drink.

A l’aveugle on est quelque part entre Rhône (sensation alcooleuse et solaire) et Bordelais (élevage), avec un abord un peu moins sec. Superbe nez complexe, intense et envoûtant. En bouche le corps est concentré, les tanins sont plus fin qu’attendu, sur des notes en cohérence avec le nez. Parfaitement prêt à boire.
