| Taste | It is complex in structure, rich in aromatic nuances, and seductive on the palate. |
| Production method | Organic vineyard cultivation without chemicals, less environmental impact and use of labour. Organic compost from vineyard pruning and stalks from the harvest eliminates parasites that could attack the vines. Finally, aloe and propolis are used to strengthen the plant's cell walls, making it more reactive and resistant to external attacks. |
| Pairings | Because of its lightness, it can be paired with sauteed fish dishes. Thanks to its woody aromaticity, it enjoys pairing with mushrooms and herb-based condiments. In addition, it pairs with the most challenging meat preparations with spicy and piquant sauces. Finally, it pairs with long-aged cheeses to enhance their structure. |

Description
A vineyard on ancient terraces, cultivated in the archaic form of the alberello head-training of Lamole, gives this 'Vigna Grospoli Chianti Classico Gran Selezione'. The sandy soil of the Chianti, together with constant exposure to the wind and pure light, creates the ideal conditions for a lyrical and fascinating wine. Complex structure, rich aromatic colours, seductive drinkability: this is the authentic and poetic expression of Lamole di Lamole winery.
