2015 Querceto di Castellina Sei Chianti Classico Gran Selezione

Certified organic. This is a single vineyard wine made solely from Sangiovese grapes and aged for 18 months in French oak. Totally opaque black dark red core with a deep dark red hue. Intense aromatics of dark cherries and ripe red to black currants roll out of the glass followed by hints of liquorice, dried herbs, vanillin cedar, tobacco characters, earth and spice. Full in the mouth, the palate is flooded with rich dark cherry and juicy red to black currant fruit which is underpinned by dried herbs, cedary tobacco characters, earth and spicy leather nuances. Excellent concentration and depth with sturdy, slightly drying tannins and balanced acidity providing the framework. Long rich savoury aftertaste.
Cellar 5-6 years.
Alc. 14.5%
