“Made with 100% organic Sangiovese, the Nittardi 2021 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione has a pretty bouquet that shows bright cherry fruit complemented by powdery, chalky tannins. I love it when those two descriptors come together in Sangiovese. The wine has a subtle vein of sweetness that is carefully folded into fresh fruit flavors and subtle oak spice. Leon Femfert and his family have created one of their best wines yet.” – Monica Larner (Jul 25, 2024)
