Here is another wine that has been moved up to Gran Selezione status. The 2011 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Bellezza (100% Sangiovese) shows tight fruit flavors that are a bit nervous and closed at this young stage. In fact, you get a clearer sense of the oak spice flavors than you do the natural fruit. After a few moments in the glass, the wine opens to dark cherry and blackberry. Bellezza is soft, mellow and silky in terms of its tannins.
