  Slightly transparent ruby color. Big legs. Very nice aromatics of cherry, charred meat and herbs, and cola. Medium bodied, leaning toward thin. As it had more exposure to air the black and red cherry fruit showed nicely. Smooth tannins, well balanced, finished with leather and cherry cola. A nice chianti, but expected greater complexity given it's a "Gran Selezione".

  Really young for now for my taste. After a long time decanting, there's notes of meat. Really good Chianti but I think this could wait for another 5 years.

  Lovely gran selezione! Tasted this on restaurant in Lamole on my honeymoon last september. Drinking it now back home brought so many nice flashbacks.
  So enjoyable!

  James Suckling - Great Wines of Italy (SF): Green, dark-fruited. Quite structured but a bit lacking in fruit.
  Note on the three Lamole’s: All of these were a bit thin on the fruit and simple on the mid-palate.
