Tenuta di Lilliano Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Ruspoli 2019
Made exclusively from grapes grown and carefully selected among two of the finest vineyards of the estate, Le Piagge and La Casina, monitored and selected year by year by hand during the harvest.

Colour

Deep red rather intense, from the nail for a long time young, even in the course of aging in bottle.

Bouquet

Very intense and pleasant floral notes with touches of licorice and herbs and hints of wild berries.

Flavour

Full bodied wine, very consistent and at the sametime persistent, concentrating in the glass the best that you can have from Sagiovese grapes that ripen on calcareous clay soils of the estate.

Pairing

Accompanies perfectly red meats, especially roasted and stewed game.

Soil composition Calcareous-clayey.
Vinification After careful selection in the vineyard, the grapes undergo soft crushing and destalking. During fermentation, which takes place at 26 to 28 °C, the must is pumped over with plunging of the cap on a daily basis, in order to favour the extraction of the noble compounds from the skins. Maceration lasts 25 days depending on the vintage.
Ageing Malolactic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, after which the wine continues to mature for 15 months partly in french barrels with a capacity of 28 and 34 hl and partly in French oak tonneaux. After maturation, the final blend is assembled, bottled, and ages in glass a minimum of 6 months.
Allergens Contains sulphites
