Product Notes

The Frescobaldi Tenuta Perano Rialzi Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is a supreme embodiment of a classic Italian wine. It allures with intense aromas of black fruits, toasted spices, and hints of tobacco. Balanced and full-bodied, the palate is enveloped by velvety tannins, with delightful notes of ripe cherry and raspberry, harmonized with subtle oak and spice nuances. The impressive lengthy finish underpins its high-quality profile. Aged meticulously in Slavonian and French oak, this Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is a perfect testimony to Tuscany's rich viticulture heritage.

Tasting Notes

Made entirely from Sangiovese grapes, Rialzi is bold, highly elegant and vibrant but never overpowering. It has an intense, bright ruby-red colour. The bouquet is complex and well-balanced: berries, violet flowers and spices are the dominant aromas, followed by notes of toasted coffee beans and tobacco, further emphasising the rich structure of Sangiovese grapes.
