Cigliano di Sopra, Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2023

Cigliano di Sopra Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2023 is a refined expression of Sangiovese from the heart of Tuscany, offering the depth and precision that define the region’s top tier. As a Gran Selezione, it represents a carefully selected wine from the estate, showcasing both the elegance of the variety and the character of Chianti Classico’s historic hills.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a vibrant ruby core with youthful brightness and fine concentration. The nose is expected to lean toward red cherry, wild berries, violet, and dried herbs, with subtle notes of spice, earth, and savory Tuscan nuance. On the palate, this should be a structured yet polished Sangiovese, with lively acidity, fine-grained tannins, and a mineral edge that gives shape and length. A wine like this has the balance to develop beautifully in bottle, with aging potential that can reward cellaring over the coming years.

Production
Produced from Sangiovese grown in Tuscany’s Chianti Classico zone, the wine reflects the area’s hillside terroir, where altitude, good diurnal range, and well-drained soils help preserve freshness and aromatic detail. Gran Selezione wines are selected from the estate’s best parcels and are made with a focus on quality and site expression, though detailed vinification information has not been provided.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs naturally with Tuscan-style dishes such as bistecca alla fiorentina, roast duck, game birds, lamb, and pasta with ragù or porcini mushrooms. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if you want to soften the tannins and open up the aromatics.
