Fattoria di Calcinaia Vina La Fornace Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2016 - 0,75l

Fattoria di Calcinaia Vina La Fornace Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2016 is a refined expression of Tuscany’s most celebrated red grape, Sangiovese. Crafted from carefully selected fruit and aged in oak for 24 months, it combines depth, elegance, and structure in a way that reflects both the character of Chianti Classico and the prestige of the Gran Selezione category.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows an intense ruby-red colour that hints at its concentration and maturity. The bouquet is complex and inviting, with layered aromas of dark berries, spice, and a subtle leathery note that adds savoury depth. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and velvety, with well-integrated tannins and a balanced, persistent finish. Its structure suggests very good aging potential, allowing the wine to gain even more nuance and harmony over time.

Production
Made in Tuscany from the best Sangiovese grapes, this Chianti Classico Gran Selezione reflects the region’s classic terroir, where hillside vineyards and a favourable Mediterranean climate help preserve freshness and aromatic complexity. The grapes are vinified with care to highlight purity of fruit and varietal expression, before the wine is matured for 24 months in oak barrels, adding texture, spice, and depth to the final blend.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent partner for game, roasted or grilled beef, and mature cheeses. For the best experience, serve it at 16–18°C and consider decanting for around an hour before serving to allow the aromas and structure to खुल fully.
