Castello di Gabbiano Bellezza Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2012

Tuscany, ItalyFour years down the road, the Bellezza Gran Selezione is ageing entirely and showing why it is at the top of the Gabbiano reds. The oak is fading, and the red fruit nuances are coming to the foreground mixed with chocolate and leather. The entry remains silky, and it runs through the texture of this wine from front to back. On the palate cherry, chocolate, leather flavours flecked with earth and spice, and just enough acidity, is beginning to peak. Steak Florentine is the match.Tasted: 01 November 2019Tasted by: Prices:
