Why shop with us?
Fattoria Lornano’s 2018 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is a 100% Sangiovese wine, made from carefully selected grapes and shaped by an extended stay in French oak. Produced by Lornano in Tuscany since 1904, it reflects the estate’s long-standing connection with the Chianti Classico tradition.
Tasting Notes
The wine shows an intense, concentrated ruby-red colour, with wild berry aromas, particularly blackberry. Full-bodied and well balanced, it combines fresh, lively fruit with elegant, velvety tannins and a notably long finish.
Its concentration and extended ageing make it a good candidate for further bottle ageing, though the precise drinking window will depend on storage conditions and personal taste.
Production
The wine is made from selected Sangiovese bunches, carefully destemmed before fermentation in stainless-steel tanks. Skin maceration lasts around 25–30 days at an average of approximately 26°C. It then matures for about 30 months in French oak barrels, with the best barrels selected for a further six months of bottle ageing. Specific information about the vineyard’s soils and terroir is not provided.
Food & Serving
Serve at around 16–18°C with grilled or roasted red meats, game, or aged cheeses. A little time in a decanter—around 45–60 minutes—can help the wine open up, particularly if drinking it young.
Producer
Lornano has produced wine in Tuscany since 1904, bringing more than a century of family tradition to its wines. The estate’s Chianti Classico Gran Selezione belongs to one of the appellation’s most selective categories. Further details about the winery’s history and specific achievements are not available in the supplied information.
