Product Notes

Vignamaggio Monna Lisa Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is an incredibly refined Italian wine from the heart of Tuscany. Exhibiting a deep ruby colour, the wine presents a bouquet of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and leather, balanced by a fresh acidity in taste. Full-bodied with velvety tannins, this elegant wine undergoes a long maturation in oak barrels and bottle ageing before release, encapsulating the traditional process of Gran Selezione. Perfect for special occasions, it complements hearty meals like roast or grilled meat. This Chianti Classico is a tribute to fine Italian winemaking, worth savouring for its rich, complex, and harmonious style.

Tasting Notes

Colour - red purple with hints of garnet. Bouquet - blackberries, followed by spicy, oaked notes. Taste - warm and persistent, filling the mouth with a fruity lusciousness, followed by a spicy and lightly tannic finish.
