Kerin O'Keefe: 100 Points
The compelling 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione from Monteraponi is quite simply the greatest wine I have yet tasted from Chianti Classico and from this fantastic estate. The first Gran Selezione and the first 100% Sangiovese ever produced by Michele Braganti it?s precise and perfumed with intense aromas of fragrant blue flower perfumed berry baking spice and camphor while the elegant vibrant palate delivers juicy red cherry wild herb blood orange and graphite. Showing its Radda roots it boasts saline mineral notes that leave a savory finish. While it?s still young and racy it?s already smooth complete and impeccably balanced with firm refined tannins and bright acidity that imparts incredible energy and great aging potential. What a beauty. To be released in 2024. Drink 2025?2049. Abv: 14% Kerin O?Keefe October 2023 ©kerinokeefe.com
