Product Notes

Fèlsina Berardenga Colonia Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is a quintessentially Tuscan red wine. It boasts a compelling harmony of vivid and voluptuous flavours; ripe black cherries cocooned in spices, details of leather and tobacco presenting an exquisite, full-bodied wine. Earthy notes mingle with refined intensity, seamlessly combining power and elegance. It's matured exclusively in oak barrels, rendering a complex character and heightened longevity. The wine's intense ruby red hue is as beautiful to behold as it's delightful to sip. This Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is a pure articulation of Sangiovese's quintessence and a true testament to Fèlsina's wine-making prowess.

Tasting Notes

Intense ruby red in colour, this wine opens with spicy aromas which are followed by earthy nuances, and hints of mineral, tobacco and wild berry. On the palate, it has intense tannins and concentrated flavours.
