"Introducing the first-ever Gran Selezione from Brancaia, and making an impressive debut, the organic 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is all Sangiovese fermented with spontaneous yeasts and submitted to a careful 18 months of oak aging. Barbara Widmer and her team hit the right chords in terms of balance, clarity of flavors and intensity. There is a crunchy side to the wine that you only ever taste in the most expertly made Sangiovese-based wines. Freshness abounds with floral aromas, tart fruit, and cherry.".



WINERY NOTE:
Brancaia celebrates with the 2019 vintage an exceptionally important addition to our portfolio – the Gran Selezione. This wine combines tradition and elegance at the highest level and perfectly completes our Chianti Classico range.
Our Gran Selezione is made from Sangiovese grapes that develop a truly unique authenticity and typicity thanks to the maturity of the vines, a careful selection of the clones and organic farming practises. The wine matures for 18 months in French oak tonneaux and additional 3 months in concrete tanks before it further ages for at least 12 months in the bottle.
The Brancaia Chianti Classico Gran Selezione reveals a great structure and refined elegance. The bouquet is complex and aromatic with lively notes of red fruits, currant and raspberry, which unveil at the first sip. On the palate it is soft and elegant with ultra-fine tannins.
We are, of course, also happy about the first awards that we received for the Gran Selezione 2019:
