Descrizione

The Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo always gets full marks. It is a pure Sangiovese that represents the best of this area every year. The Gran Selezione represents only 10% of the entire Chianti Classico production and was created to promote selected individual, historic vineyards in Fontodi. The Sorbo vineyard, which uses the Guyot method, enjoys south-west exposure and boasts vines that are at least 40 years old.

Fermentation is spontaneous – with indigenous yeasts – while ageing involves one passage in Troncais and Allier barriques for 24 months, followed by 8 months in the bottle. The colour is a bright ruby red and the aromas include black cherry, eucalyptus, and mentholated and spicy traits. It is juicy, full, with touches of balsamic and persistence. The tannins are exuberant and it is filled with freshness. This is a great Chianti Classico; the quintessence of what the territory has to offer.
