Poggio Torselli Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2019 750ml

Poggio Torselli Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2019 is a Tuscan red from the Poggio Torselli estate in San Casciano, at 15% ABV.

It is made from 100% Sangiovese and carries the Chianti Classico DOCG black rooster seal.

Gran Selezione is the top tier of Chianti Classico, above Annata and Riserva.

A serious, age-worthy Sangiovese for the dinner table or the cellar.

Good wine rewards a little care in serving. Whites and rosés show best chilled to around 45 to 50°F, while reds are at their most expressive slightly below room temperature, around 60 to 65°F. Opening the bottle and letting it breathe for a few minutes, or pouring it into a decanter, helps the aromas open up.
