Intense and brilliant ruby red. |

Delicately perfumed with aromas of ripe red fruits underlined by spicy touches and a hint of balsamic. |

Ample and generous, the wine has ripe and juicy notes of fruit. The supple and integrated tannins deliver a delicate and precise wine on a final of a beautiful freshness. |

A pure expression of Sangiovese, the 2015 Red Chianti Classico Badia a Passignano Gran Selezione delivers itself admirably today, driven by a straightforward, bright, fruity character and a delicate constitution. The warm vintage and the aging in Hungarian barrels of 300 to 500 liters compose a luxurious wine, smooth and polished, very well proportioned, and balanced by beautiful natural acidity. The black fruits and spices are present, merging in a full and fresh palate with great persistence. A model of Chianti, reserved for the best price! Rated 94/100 by Parker. |
