Tasting note
Castello di Bossi's 2019 Gran Selezione should bring sour cherry, dried rose and a touch of orange peel. Chianti Classico Sangiovese is expected to feel taut and savory, its energetic acidity brightening the fruit while fine tannin adds a chalky grip. The projected peak stretches from 2026 to 2040, within a window that lasts through 2048. A dry, layered finish should reveal herbal notes and a faint tea-like quality.
