The Gran Selezione from the single vineyard Bellavista is rich and dark with aromas of wild cherry, smoke, liquorice, menthol and tobacco. Extremely attractive and rich on the palate, firm tannins form the backbone of this virile, potent wine. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark ruby red. Opens hesitantly on the nose, fine resinous hints paired with rich cherry fruit, in addition dried rose petal and light spice. On the palate very juicy game with clear fruit, shows a lot of breed, plus young, fresh tannin in many layers, still needs some time, will come together splendidly." Falstaff

"The aromas of blackberries, brambles, bark and mushrooms lead into a full body with deep and chewy tannins and a long finish. It is very structured. Needs time to soften. Drink it after 2025." James Suckling

"Dark and brooding, this red evokes violet, black currant and black cherry flavors accented by notes of wild herbs, iron, sanguine and spices. Underlined by a steely structure and vibrant acidity, this shows fine balance and harmony, yet will require more time to ultimately hit its sweet spot." Wine Spectator

"The Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto Bellavista 2019 rises from the glass with breathtaking intensity in all its dimensions. The aromatics alone are impressive, but that is only the beginning. Rich and lush on the palate, the 2019 is the most refined Bellavista I've ever tasted, and I've tasted them all. A healthy proportion of Malvasia Nera gives it spicy notes and a good amount of grip, while clean mineral nuances extend the finish. The tannins are particularly polished, which they rarely are in a young Bellavista." Vinous

"The 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto Bellavista is produced only in the very best vintages. This stunning wine shows beautiful concentration with just the right amount of fruit weight that feels rich but not heavy. The wine appears compact and firm, with excellent depth reflected in the aromas of wild berries, crushed minerals, roses, tobacco and mint herbs. The complexity of the wine carefully unfolds with time in the glass." Wine Advocate
