Impressive concentration and depth, with blackberry and red cherry aromas and flavors set in a beautiful Chianti acidity. This wine pairs very well with all types of meats, fowl and cheeses.

"A juicy, flavorful red with plum and berry character, as well as light notes of dark chocolate and walnuts. Medium body, creamy tannins and a flavorful finish. Tight and vivid."

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"I believe this wine was once a Gran Selezione is now reclassified as a Riserva. The Tenuta di Nozzole 2016 Chianti Classico Riserva La Forra shows classic lines and well-balanced fruit with dark cherry, spice, crushed flower and delicate earthy tones. La Forra is distinguished by its balance, revealing good intensity that doesn't pull too strongly in any particular direction. The wine's careful harmony is what gives it that food-friendly appeal."
