Chianti Classico Gran Selezione

The nose is aromatic, finely powerful and offers a fine freshness. It reveals notes of flowers, blackberry and fresh cassis associated with slight touches of wood, Sichuan pepper, sweet spices and a very discreet hint of nutmeg. The palate is fruity, silky, soft, elegant, aerial, round and offers tension, a fine / discreet acidity as well as a fine fresh frame. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of juicy blackberry, juicy red berries and slight notes of cassis combined with a discreet hint of olive, slight touches of toasted wood and a discreet hint of spice. Tannins are slightly dry. Good length and good persistence. The persistence is suave.
