Description
95 points Vinous
"The 2018 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Aluigi Campo ai Peri is a terrific follow up to the stellar 2016. Rich, deep and explosive, the Aluigi saturates the palate with dark fruit, leather, tobacco, spice, menthol and espresso notes. This ample, full-bodied Panzano Gran Selezione hits all the right notes. The marriage of elegance and pure power is compelling."
Vinous Reverie Notes
Le Cinciole's vineyards are on the eastern, Chianti Mountain-facing side of the Panzano region; they're moderately high in altitude, with "cooler" southeastern aspects, with soils formed by weathered calcareous sandstone (Pietraforte). This area is known for wines of compact fruit and tannic structure, that are nevertheless elegantly delivered with a lifted vibrancy.
