The Tasting
-
Appearance & Nose
01Sangiovese, the principal grape of Chianti Classico, finds rare elegance in this land, shaped by a regulation that mandates rigorous grape selection and prolonged aging.
-
Palate & Finish
02This Chianti Classico Gran Selezione, produced by Terra di Seta, benefits from a minimum of thirty months of aging, including three months in bottle, to develop exceptional organoleptic complexity. In the glass, it reveals itself in the guise of a deep and promising red wine, ready to nobly accompany succulent red meats, game, and aged cheeses.
