Il Caggio, Ipsus Chianti Classico Gran Selezione, 2019
🏰 The 2019 Il Caggio Ipsus Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is a 【pursuit of excellence, aiming to be the best wine in the Chianti Classico appellation】 from a vintage that set the stage for perfect phenolic maturation. This Sangiovese offers a bright, brightening ruby red hue and a finely fragrant, elegant nose of soft cherry fruit, candle wax, finest oak, and a distant hint of incense. The palate reveals excellently worked fruit, coated with tightly woven tannins, deep, juicy red berries, mint, and a multi-layered, polished, and long finish. Expect notes of cherry, orange peel, sandalwood, pomegranate, and subtle spices, with a tightly wound texture and an electrifying, savory finish.
🍴 Chinese Cantonese food pairing: This powerful Chianti Classico is a superb match for robust Italian dishes like osso buco, wild boar ragu, or aged Pecorino cheese. For a Cantonese twist, consider roasted suckling pig or braised beef short ribs with star anise.
🥂 fit for event suggestion: Perfect for a celebratory Italian-themed dinner, a gathering of wine enthusiasts, or as a significant addition to a fine wine collection. This wine has excellent aging potential and will continue to evolve beautifully.
