Chianti Classico DOCG Gran Selezione Vigna Grospoli - Magnum - Lamole 2021

This Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna Grospoli in magnum format clearly expresses the serious, refined character of the Lamole area. On the nose it opens with ripe red fruit, cherry and plum, notes of dried flowers and a spicy touch; there are also subtle earthy hints that add depth. The palate is expressive without being forced: lively acidity, well-integrated tannins and a full-bodied structure that supports a long persistence, with fruity echoes and a savory finish. Light mineral nuances contribute to the tension and overall freshness.

The magnum is ideal for observing the wine’s evolution in bottle, offering a softer, more enveloping experience in the glass. Serve at a cool but not cold temperature, after a short decant if consumed immediately. It pairs with roasted meats, robust stews and aged cheeses; it is equally appreciated on occasions when a wine that is both substantial and refined is desired, capable of showing balance between power and finesse. The magnum bottle promotes slower maturation: it deserves a few years in the cellar for those who prefer broader tones.
