Great wine. Gran selezione is always a bit underwhelming to me but this one holds its own.

Needed a lotttt of time to open up and could use a few more years in the bottle. But the acidity is awesome! Paired really nicely with aged Beemster.

Dry and powerful. On the nose: cherry and earth. On the palate: fresh red fruits and anise. Nice lenght and good complexity, with a savory aftertaste.

Etereo fruittella, bellissima acidità. Pronto! Da grande invecchiamento! Tannino elegante, leggera sapidità. Un po’ poca. Alcol integrato benissimo.

Quite closed and tightly woven with great purity & depth. Dark fruit, some spice, a touch of liquorice. Excellent tannin management and a long finish. . A very, very fine wine.
100% Sangiovese aged 18m in tonneaux and botte.
