"The 2022 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna Cavarchione is dense and explosive in the glass. A blast of dark cherry, blackberry, graphite, dried herbs, menthol, and sage stains the palate. This heady, broad-shouldered Gran Selezione has a ton going on. Readers should expect a potent wine endowed with notable textural presence. Time in the glass releases the aromatics nicely. The long finish is so inviting." -Antonio Galloni

"The stunning 2022 Gran Selezione Cavarchione boasts heady aromas of camphor, lavender, spice and forest berry. Made with organically farmed Sangiovese from Gaiole, the delicious, structured palate delivers raspberry, cherry compote dark culinary spice and menthol alongside a backbone of smooth, fine-grained tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it edgy. Drink through 2037." -Kerin O'Keefe
