    "Pecchia" Chianti Classico Gran Selezione DOCG 2018 (BIO)

    The name Pecchia comes from the honeybees that sting the berries in search of sugar. Pecchia Gran Selezione has an enormous intensity in its aromas and flavours, but also remains incredibly refined. Black cherry, plum, leather, liquorice and spice develop effortlessly in the glass. Pecchia is a beautiful and extremely elegant wine with a firm backbone and delicate layers of fruit and spice. A salty, mineral note emphasises its freshness and brightness. The 2018 vintage spent 18 months in small French oak, followed by a few months in stainless steel. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Deep and complex with dark berries, spiced plums, chocolate and rose petals. Also a little earthy and tarry. Full and complete with layers of superfine tannins and a deep core of fruit in the centre. Balanced and even. Long and concentrated." James Suckling

    "Attractive aromas of ripe black cherries, combined with sweet spice and leathery tar, with compact tannins, refreshing, lively acidity and a delicious, mocha-infused length. Fabulous!" Decanter

    "This wine, now upgraded to Gran Selezione, represents some of the best fruit from 32-year-old vines from a single parcel in Panzano in Chianti. The Gagliole 2018 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Pecchia shows a rich concentration and a more austere personality that reflects the character of this vintage. It is rich in black fruits, dried plums, spices and crushed stone. The Pecchia has broad shoulders and a solid austerity. An extra year of ageing has given this full-bodied red wine an even more intense texture. The production is 3,059 bottles." Wine Advocate

    "Nose with notes of wild plum, hints of cinnamon, then rose hips and iodine notes in closing. The mouthfeel is taut, with a return of dark-skinned fruit and spicy sensations. It closes with floral memories." Luca Gardini
