Riserva Ducale Oro Gran Selezione Chianti Classico Sangiovese
Chianti Classico, Chianti, Tuscany, Italy
It’s good. But you would expect more from a 10 year old Gran Selezione. Especially since 2016 was supposed to be a great vintage.

We had the 2016 Vintage on 8/15-16/26. A real good Chianti with tastes of raspberry, black cherry, plum and herbs. Old World, medium bodied

Beautiful round edges. Nose soft and inviting. Palette has a nice tannins, but softened. Luscious red berries.
Would pair well tuna, a bolognese pepper filet.

Nice Chianti Classico! Blend of Sangiovese (85%), Merlot (10%) and Colorino (5%). Traditional Tuscan aromas and flavors of cherries, plums, violets, tobacco, dark chocolate and spices. Touch of iron on the finish. Nice Garnet color. Medium bodied and mouth watering acidity. Good balance. Thanks to Ron B. for offering this one. Revisited in August 2024. Quite good. Thanks for the second tasting Ron B!
