No real signs of age. Rich and velvety, a bit more fruit forward than you might expect. A real value even at this price.

Still has plenty of leather, tobacco, forest floor and. A little red cherry, but this is either an off bottle, or this wine has lost a step, which would be understandable at the age of 13. Will revisit soon Drink now 90

This wine is starting to close down. Needs a longer decant now than last year. 2-3 hours at a minimum. A very beautiful wine. More rustic and burnt tomato than last year.

Beautifully bright and pure, cherry, anise, perfumey and floral. The finish is enveloping, extremely long, not mouthcoating at all, very fine and linear. This wine reminds me more of an elegant Barolo than a Chianti. This wine is extremely elegant. Could be a point higher on this due to having spent a day at the winery, and got the full experience. But still in the top handful of chiantis I have ever had. That being said, just short of the 2016.

Twenty Years On Wines, Some Luxury at Home; 4/19/2024-5/9/2024 (Alicante y Madrid - España): Served by the glass. Castelnuovo Berardenga et Vagliagli subzone. Elegant floral and fruity aromas, soft and delicate. Aristocratic complexity. Palate retains this fineness in the form of a velvety texture with good acidity and length. The purity of the Sangiovese grape. Only a couple of steps below Le Boncie. Excellent.

Servido por copas. Subzona de Castelnuovo Berardenga et Vagliagli. Elegantes aromas florales y frutales, suaves y delicados. Aristocrática complejidad. Al paladar conserva esa finura en forma de una textura aterciopelada con buena acidez y longitud. La pureza de la uva Sangiovese. Sólo un par de peldaños por debajo de Le Boncie. Excelente.

Better than expected and ready to drink pretty much upon opening. New world style fruit but nice herbal and acidity balance befitting Tuscany.

Pnp. Dark ruby. Black and red cherry, touch of earth and spice. Medium/full bodied. Smooth and denser than most Chianti's I've sampled. Good acidity and firm tannins. Medium length finish. Paired well with meat sauce spaghetti.

Needs a couple hours to open up. Would benefit from 1.5-2 hours of a decant this young. Overall a top notch Chianti Classico riserva. Red fruit on the nose, but plenty of tannin and structure allows for a lingering finish. Classic Chianti acidity comes through this wine

4/10/2024 - Vinnut Likes this wine: 92 points

Medium ruby red in color. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, strawberries & mulberries with overtones of earthy/dusty & floral notes, pine, spices, leather, herbs & a hint of balsamic & cedar notes in the background. Medium bodied with a very good concentration of balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, plums & strawberries with herbs & minerals. Lingering finish. Quite accessible at present with decanting & much needed extended airing & should develop further with additional aging. Very good QPR for a Gran Selezione when found at discount.

Interesting, Bordeaux-espue nose of new barrique, black currant, scorched earth and as well as some Sangiovese generated stewed cherry and leather. Medium bodied, this is still quite tannic with good acidity and flavors of scorched earth, blueberry and oak. This has never been a favorite of mine, but this bottle is striking me particularly well. Aromatically superb, but the palate is crimped by the combination of high (and not particularly suave) tannin and acidity. Still youthful, no rush to drink remaining bottles. 92

Deep cherry red color in the glass with engaging aromas of sour cherries, leather, fresh ripe raspberries.
On the palate, a delightfully luscious medium bodied mouthful of the fruit flavors noted above.
Excellent acidity and a finish is smooth with lingering fresh fruit flavor notes.
Outstanding Chianti Classico.

2 hour decant. Any earlier and you’ll be premature- I tasted every 30 minutes.

This is a really beautiful Chianti.

Has that mild, balsamic-mint nose that quality Sangiovese acquires. Earthy, not floral.

Medium bodied with moderate tannins offset by some syrupy balsamic glazey flavor.

Wish I bought more than 2 bottles. Will drink my final bottle on a special occasion.

Opens up into a really juicy and flavorful wine second night. Drink now or keep for some years. There’s some slight bitter tannins that if softened will make this wine stellar.

Sour cherry, velvet anis. Needs more time for depth, had the 2016 recently and it had more tones of deep cherry, sandalwood, herbs, full, high density. Will save next 2018 2 years

If drinking now, decant for two hours. However, if you can be patient, this will warrant a higher score with 3+ more years in cellar.
