The Chianti Classico Gran Selezione DOCG of San Leonino is born in the heart of the historic Chianti Classico region, a wine emblem of Tuscany. This refined wine is mainly obtained from Sangiovese grapes, cultivated in the estate's vineyards that enjoy an ideal microclimate, with favorable temperature variations and soils rich in galestro and clay. The aging takes place in oak barrels, which give elegance and a complex structure to the final product.
On the nose, it opens with intense aromas of ripe cherry, sweet spices, and light floral notes that intertwine with vanilla and tobacco nuances, a result of skillful maturation. The taste is enveloping, well balanced between soft tannins and vibrant acidity, with a persistent finish that leaves a pleasant sensation of red fruits and spicy notes. Perfect paired with red meats, game, and aged cheeses, it represents an authentic excellence of the Chianti territory.
