Certified Organic & Biodynamic Sangiovese

Aged to Perfection
Élevage: A total of 30 months of ageing, including 18 months in French oak barriques and tonneaux, enhances structure, complexity, and aging potential.
Tasting Notes
“The 2017 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is ample, rich, and quite seductive, in line with the vintage’s warm profile. Layers of dark red fruit, spice, leather, tobacco, and incense unfold beautifully. The purity of the Sangiovese fruit is simply mind-blowing, with fine-grained tannins and a remarkably persistent finish. One of Querciabella’s most compelling young wines to date.” 96+ Points, Antonio Galloni
