Terrazze San Leolino is a Gran Selezione Chianti Classico made from 100% Sangiovese, coming from the eponymous vineyard with south-west exposure and old vines that yield concentrated, characterful grapes.

Vinification is carried out by spontaneous fermentation on indigenous yeasts with a maceration of more than three weeks in stainless-steel vats; the wine then matures for 24 months in barriques and large French oak casks, providing depth, length and well-integrated oak tones.

In the glass Terrazze San Leolino presents concentrated red and black fruit, refined spice and a powerful yet elegant tannic structure with excellent length and ageing potential.

Serve at 18–20 °C in a large glass. A perfect match for grilled red meat, game, richer pasta dishes and aged cheeses.
