TENUTA DI RENIERI, CHIANTI CLASSICO, GRAN SELEZIONE

 

TUSCANY, ITALY 2015

 

Lightning never strikes twice, so they say. Yet today’s offer proves idioms are not completely foolproof.  After quickly selling out last year of our offer of the 95-Point 2015 Renieri Chianti Classico Gran Selezione, the demand for this inaugural vintage release forced us back to see if we could wrangle another allocation from this hot property. With Renieri’s 2015 Brunello Riserva recently awarded a perfect 100 points, chances seemed slim to none as the estate has been creating a buzz throughout the wine world—especially for a vintage proclaimed by producers as being one of the greatest ever in Tuscany. Yet for one week, lightning has indeed struck twice, as we were able to secure a second allocation at the lowest advertised price in the country!
  
For owner Marco Bacci, the 2015 harvest was “no doubt one of the best of the last 30 years” and critics couldn’t agree more, as Wine Spectator rated the vintage 97 points overall, with “long-lived, powerful and concentrated reds.” This excellent quality couldn’t have come at a better time for the newest designation in Chianti, Gran Selezione. Created by the Chianti Consorzio in 2014 with the intention of driving quality and restoring consumer faith in the wines of the region, Gran Selezione will certainly change your mind about Chianti. With stricter regulations, the wines designated Gran Selezione are special selections, sourced from the best parcels of the estate representing the crème de la crème of what the producer and terroir have to offer. With longer aging requirements and a rigorous approval process by a panel of their peers, Gran Selezione is now the “new king of Chianti.”
  
Standing up to some of the heavy hitters of Italy, including the neighboring Brunello, at a fraction of the price, this Gran Selezione is a must-have for stocking your collection. With up to 25% off 12 or more bottles, our newest allocation will sell out quickly. Don’t hesitate in securing your orders of this release today!
