Cacchiano Millennio Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2021

Decanter 97

"DWWA 2026 Platinum Medal: Regal and imperious: a gamut of black plum, cherry and spicy tobacco mottles the nose and inhabits the palate alongside grasping tannins and vibrant sweet and sour acidity. A steadfast mineral backbone drives the powerful finish."

The Cacchiano Millennio Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2021 presents a blend of Sangiovese grapes sourced from the prestigious Chianti Classico region in Tuscany, Italy. This wine offers a robust flavor profile featuring notes of ripe cherry, balsamic, and subtle earthy undertones, complemented by balanced acidity and firm tannins, characteristic of its vintage and terroir.

For optimal enjoyment, decant the wine for at least 30 minutes before serving to enhance its aeration. This Chianti Classico pairs well with rich dishes such as grilled meats, pasta with hearty sauces, and aged cheeses. Serve at a temperature of 16-18°C (60-65°F) for the best results.
