The Story
A powerful and elegant Gran Selezione with complex aromas of black cherry, plum, violet, tobacco, cedar, and sweet spices. Full-bodied and beautifully structured, the palate reveals layers of ripe dark fruit, licorice, leather, and earthy minerality framed by polished tannins and vibrant acidity. Deep and refined, it finishes exceptionally long with remarkable balance and aging potential.
Food Pairing: Bistecca alla Fiorentina, braised beef, roasted lamb, wild boar ragù, truffle dishes, aged Pecorino, and hard Italian cheeses.
93 Points - James Suckling
Sweet berries and tobacco on the nose with some violets and lavender. Medium to full body. Lots of tannins, but they are solid and pure. Flavorful finish. Give this time to open. Try after 2022.
