The Chianti Classico Gran Selezione represents the pinnacle of winemaking at Rocca delle Macìe, a label with which the Zingarelli family pays homage to the land of Castellina in Chianti. This red wine of extraordinary personality is born in the beating heart of the vineyard Le Terrazze, where the use of pure Sangiovese, derived from selected clones, elevates the concept of terroir to the highest levels. The structure of the wine is then sculpted by a skilled aging of 18 months in French oak barrels and a resting period in bottle of at least 20 months. The result is a wine with an intense and brilliant ruby red color that releases a complex bouquet of marasca, small red fruits, and elegant spicy notes, with hints of Mediterranean scrub. On the palate, it reveals warmth, richness, and impeccable balance, supported by a weave of silky and noble tannins that guide the tasting towards a long and persistent finish. Excellent paired with a peposo alla fornacina
