THE NOBLE SYNTHESIS OF THE INTERACTION BETWEEN MAN AND NATURE.
From grapes of portentous aromatic intensity from the historic Campolungo vineyard, which stretches from 420 to 580 metres above sea level amidst historic terraces, arises this Chianti Classico Gran Selezione. But it is only the winemaking wisdom of Lamole di Lamole that transforms it into the stratified and solemn wine that declares its origin already in its name, Vigneto di Campolungo Chianti Classico Gran Selezione. The result of one of our best vineyards, a synthesis of our dedication.

Terroir
Vineyard: Lamole, Campolungo vineyard
Altitude: 420 - 576 m. (1.378 - 1.890 ft.) a.s.l.
Soil: Schist and sandstone marl

Carefully selected grapes from the vineyard are harvested and then destemmed before passing through the optical sorter. The must then ferments in 50hl truncated cone-shaped casks and macerates on the skins for around two weeks. This is followed by a period of maturation in medium-sized oak barrels, with a small proportion having its élevage in barriques. The subsequent maturation in bottle before release onto the market is fundamental for the integration and harmony of the wine’s aromatic and structural components.

Eye
A concentrated, bright ruby red color.
Nose
The bouquet of violets and red and black berry fruits, which mingle attractively with spicy and balsamic aromas.
Palate
Powerful and vigorous, dynamic and elegant; the extremely dense tannins are set off by tastebud-tingling tangy and succulent sensations that linger in a finish which simply crackles with fruit, spices and aromatic herbs.

Service and Pairing
Because of its concentration and depth, this is a wine with a natural disposition for pairing with food, especially with richly flavored soups, pasta dishes with game sauces, and meat recipes that are slow-cooked or include spices and herbs. Excellent with more mature cheeses.
Drink in the next 8-10 years.
