Description
Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Rialzi, produced by Tenuta Perano - Frescobaldi, 14.5% ABV, 100% Sangiovese. 0.75 L bottle, 2020 vintage. A Chianti Classico made in the heart of Chianti Classico, in the municipality of Gaiole, from vineyards located 500 meters above sea level. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats with maceration on the skins and gentle pumping over. Aged for 36 months, 24 of which in barrique. On the nose, fruit and spice dominate: currant, blueberry, and black pepper. These then give way to tertiary notes of toast, coffee bean, and tobacco. Ruby red in color, intense yet clear, with subtle garnet nuances. On the palate, its richness and depth stand out, perfectly balanced by the characteristic elegance of a Sangiovese at these altitudes.
