"Roncicone" is a Chianti Classico Gran Selezione of great structure and intensity, aged for 22 months in tonneaux. On the nose, it opens with elegant notes of ripe forest fruit, accompanied by delicate nuances of sandalwood, spices and a balsamic accent. On the palate, the wine is assertive and powerful, with well-defined tannins supported by a persistent freshness.
