Pale garnet in color, this wine presents pronounced aromas of macerated cherries, with subtle hints of menthol and dry earth. I did not notice any floral notes.
On the palate, the wine confirms the nose, displaying medium-plus tannins and medium acidity, with a medium finish.
I believe this wine could benefit from a couple more years of aging in the cellar, although I really enjoyed it. I look forward to trying it again in 2027 or 2028. — a month ago

2015: Rich, generous CC Gran Selezione drinking very well now. I wouldn’t mistake it for the top Brunellos but good fruit and quality viscosity set it apart from the better Riservas. Touches of tar and leather give it a good dose of complexity. $45? At WL. — 2 years ago

What a great tasting wine. The body of this wine is not heavy but tastes like a full body wine. — 7 years ago
