TN: Livernano Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2013

Post by Waiters Friend »

G'day

This wine was purchased from the winery in Radda in Chianti back in 2019. Decanted 3 hours before service.

Deep purple colour. Complex and fragrant nose of dak cherry, blue and black berries, plums, rosemary, dried herbs, cedary oak and a touch of menthol. The palate is quite full without being overly heavy - more developed fruit flavours, fine integrating tannins providing some grip, and balancing acid. A lovely slippery texture and considerable length,

A delightful Chianti and probably at its peak. I'm glad I slipped this into my luggage 7 years ago.

Cheers
Allan
