(UG)<\/em> If we were to compare all the Chianti Classico wines tasted to a concert, for most Chianti Classico wines, the 2024 vintage<\/strong> would be the string section\u2014vibrant, acidic, immediate\u2014but the Gran Selezione<\/strong> would undoubtedly remain the virtuoso soloist. This year more than ever, the pinnacle of the Gallo Nero pyramid has demonstrated that a golden label isn’t enough to create elegance: the terroir is needed, of course, but above all, it requires a “polished” tannin that knows when to stay in its place and also knows how to meet the tastes of contemporary consumers, without ever denying its identity.<\/p>\n

Here is our definitive selection of the 20 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione wines,<\/strong> from which a specific geography emerges among the various UGA (Additional Geographic Units) that capture the Gallo Nero territory: the mountain freshness of Gaiole<\/strong> and the mineral flavor of San Casciano.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Top 20 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione: Excellence in Simple Words<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The masters of balance<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Maurizio Alongi \u2013 Vigna Barbischio 2023 (Gaiole):<\/strong>\"\" Pomegranate, blood orange, currant, and cardamom create an intense, lively, fresh, and structured palate, with precise, fine tannins. Simply elegant.<\/li>\n
  • Tenuta di Arceno \u2013 Strada al Sasso 2023 (Castelnuovo Berardenga):<\/strong> Notes of flowers and fresh fruit, with sweet spices in the background. On the palate, it is intense and tannic, yet elegant. Balanced and easy to drink.<\/li>\n
  • Castello di Gabbiano \u2013 Cerbaiola 2022 (San Casciano):<\/strong> Glazed and iodine notes, balsamic notes, and black pepper. Fresh, savory, full-bodied, and long-lasting. Evolving, very elegant.<\/li>\n
  • Villa Vallacchio \u2013 Cristiana 2019 (San Casciano):<\/strong> A warm, reassuring caress, between dark chocolate and tobacco. The red fruit resurfaces on the palate, driven by vibrant acidity and fine tannins. Elegant and powerful.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The strength of tradition<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Borgo Casa al Vento \u2013 V’Incanto 2020 (Gaiole):<\/strong> Notes of spice and dark fruit. A savory and well-balanced flavor, where smoothness and balance create a harmony that satisfies the palate.<\/li>\n
    • Cigliano di Sopra \u2013 Gran Selezione 2023 (San Casciano):<\/strong> Notes of violet and fresh raspberry. On the palate, it is taut and savory, with a distinct minerality. Vertical and deep.<\/li>\n
    • Castello della Paneretta \u2013 Torre a Destra 2017 (S. Donato in Poggio):<\/strong> Dried fruit and licorice in a sip that is at the pinnacle of evolution. Pleasant, wholesome, and balanced.<\/li>\n
    • Vignamaggio \u2013 Monna Lisa 2018 (Greve):<\/strong> Ripe red fruit, sweet spices and balsamic notes that open up into an intense sip and fine tannins for a fresh and consistent finish.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

       <\/p>\n

      Tension and structure<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      • Castagnoli \u2013 Climb 2021 (Castellina):<\/strong>\"\" A youthful nose of dark fruit and a light balsamic note. Full-bodied, progressive, lively, and long on the palate. A wine that never stands still.<\/li>\n
      • Castello di Meleto \u2013 Gran Selezione 2022 (Gaiole):<\/strong> Flowers, red fruit, and a hint of balsamic. A balanced and refined palate with elegant tannins. A modern wine with great potential.<\/li>\n
      • Castello di Monsanto \u2013 Vigna Il Poggio 2022 (S. Donato in Poggio):<\/strong> A complex nose of blood orange and blood notes. The palate is upright, with a steely backbone and tannins that aim for elegance, though it still has a long way to go.<\/li>\n
      • Ricasoli \u2013 Colledil\u00e0 2023 (Gaiole):<\/strong> Mineral and black pepper notes. Intense, fresh, almost spicy on the finish. Solid structure with precise, linear tannins.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        The character of the territory<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Castello Vicchiomaggio \u2013 La Prima 2022 (Greve):<\/strong> Spicy and balsamic. Full-bodied, muscular, taut, and very textured on the palate. Lively yet noble tannins.<\/li>\n
        • Tolaini \u2013 Vigna Montebello Sette 2022 (Castelnuovo Berardenga):<\/strong> Red fruit, leather, and a hint of vanilla. Lively and intense on the palate, with well-crafted tannins. A truly convincing “classic style.”<\/li>\n
        • Bindi Sergardi \u2013 Mocenni 89 2020 (Vagliagli):<\/strong> A vegetal and aromatic nose. Pleasant, balanced palate, almost sweet on the finish. Elegant and fresh. A fine confirmation.<\/li>\n
        • Castello di Ama \u2013 San Lorenzo 2022 (Gaiole):<\/strong> Balsamic and dark fruit. Mineral on the palate, with lively and noble tannins. Impetuous and elegant at the same time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

           <\/p>\n

          Subtlety and perspective<\/strong><\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Cecchi Family \u2013 Family Value 2022 (Castellina):\"\"<\/strong> Spicy and almost aromatic. On the palate, it expresses savory and softness, with a consistent finish of fresh red cherry.<\/li>\n
          2. Tenuta di Nozzole \u2013 Giovanni Folonari 2021 (Greve):<\/strong> Delicate aromas of flowers and red fruits. On the palate, it’s refined, with expertly crafted tannins.<\/li>\n
          3. Castello di Bossi \u2013 Gran Selezione 2022 (Castelnuovo Berardenga):<\/strong> Subtle and restrained on the nose. Lively, flavorful, and balanced on the palate. A modern elegance.<\/li>\n
          4. Il Molino di Grace \u2013 Il Margone 2023 (Panzano):<\/strong> Dark notes of blueberry and sweet tobacco. Progressive and fresh on the palate, with a minty finish that cleanses the palate. Rich and deep.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Final Considerations<\/strong><\/p>\n

            While the UGA Gaiole<\/strong> remains at the top for complexity and longevity, the San Casciano<\/strong> interpretations offer the most surprising peaks of elegance, thanks to a management of tannins that this year seemed almost tailor-made. The Gran Selezione 2023, in particular, seems to have found that “squaring the circle” between freshness and structure that was often lacking in drier vintages of the past.<\/p>\n

            A word of advice to readers<\/strong> : don’t rush. Many of these wines are still “young and edgy,” but they have the makings of great champions. Time will tell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

WineReporter \u00e8 una vera e propria ripartenza: oggi sono pi\u00f9 motivato che mai a dedicare ogni mia energia al mondo della viticoltura e dell'enologia che \u00e8 e resta il mio habitat naturale. Il mio obiettivo di giornalista \u00e8 quello di raccontare il vino in modo moderno, senza filtri, con una libert\u00e0 nuova, utilizzando il potere delle immagini e del web per arrivare dritto al cuore del lettore. Oggi la mia carriera si muove lungo un binario preciso: la narrazione del vino intesa come valore economico, culturale e umano.","url":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/author\/umberto-gambino\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18304","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18304"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18304\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18306,"href":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18304\/revisions\/18306"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18287"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18304"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18304"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18304"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
