Mazzei Castello Fonterutoli Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2019 exhibits an intense and profound colour. On the nose, it reveals distinct aromas of blackberries, cherries, violets, and flowers, with a hint of nougat. On the palate, it is a full-bodied wine with a captivating sweetness and smooth tannins. Its flavour is intense and concentrated, delighting the senses. The finish is long and full of elegance, leaving a lasting and sophisticated impression.                      

Beautiful combination of elegance, structure and minerality, with orange peel, red fruits and a touch of licorice. 

Pair with savory game dishes, stews, truffles and aged, strong tasting cheeses.

96 Points - James Suckling

A very linear and fine-tannin'd Chianti Classico with crunchy cherry fruit and hints of minerals. Medium body. Crisp and lively finish. Closed and tight in the mid-palate. Drink or hold [for another 15+ years].

95 Points - Falstaff

Bright, radiant ruby red. Slightly restrained on the nose, gentle hints of orange zest and raspberry. Juicy on the palate with a red berry fruit core, elegant and gluggable, currently still very young, delicate drive with lots of finesse on the finish, salty.
