Terra di Seta – Assai 2011 – Chianti Classico Gran Selezione

The nose is aromatic, quite intense and offers a fine concentration. It reveals notes of coffee and slight notes of dark chocolate combined with small notes of blackberry, crushed cassis, slight touches of plum, raspberry as well as a discreet hint of redcurrant, spices, undergrowth, a very discreet hint of gray pepper and an imperceptible hint of garrigue. The mouth is fruity, soft, unctuous, fleshy, gourmande and offers a nice acid frame, juiciness (fruit) as well as a good precision. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of fleshy garriguette strawberry, raspberry and slight notes of plum combined with a discreet hint of flowers, blueberry, toasted wood, zan, nutmeg as well as a discreet hint of chocolate. Tannins are very fine and a bit dusty. Good length.
