Winemaker notes
Intense dark red, nose of blueberry, dark cherry, ripe blackberry and garrigue with notes of exotic spices. Medium palate with elegant tannins and excellent freshness Outstanding texture, remarkable fine grained tannins with a long & persisting finish. Nittardi Gran Selezione 2020 is still a young wine and it will be exciting to follow the evolution of it for the next 20 years. This Chianti Classico matches perfectly to the creative Tuscan cuisine. It should be served at around 18° C.
2010
James Suckling 92: Loads of dried fruit with hints of asphalt and tar. Full body with velvety tannins and plenty of rich fruit. Big, ripe style but fresh at the finish. Drink or hold.
