Gran Selezione

The estate’s ambitious project to terrace a slope prone to erosion resulted in this Gran Selezione offering. Planted in 2000, the vines have matured into their twenties with sufficient resilience to withstand the arid conditions of 2022. While production was down by approximately 40%, the results are laudable. It channels the vintage’s heat with scents of dark ripe cherry, vanilla-infused strawberry coulis and leather. The palate shows depth with a charmingly tousled personality. Richness is hemmed in by a supple, steady grip. There is both a softness and an edginess. Rust, mocha and lingering dried herbs lend intricacies.
