Leads off with blackberry and black cherry aromas and flavors, compounded by floral and new leather accents. Bright, gaining elegance by the long aftertaste. Best from 2018 through 2030.

A fresh and layered red with blackberry, blueberry and mint character. Full body, firm tannins and a fresh finish. Minerally. Drink or hold.

The 2011 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto Bellavista opens to dark concentration, bold intensity and an immediate delivery of ripe fruit flavors. Stylistically speaking, this single-vineyard Grand Selezione is extracted, muscular and extremely fruit forward. The heat of the 2011 vintage comes through loud and clear. Happily, the mouthfeel is tighter and more focused with dusty minerality on the tannins and long persistency. <br/>
