Sixty One Whitehall | London SW1A 2ET | 11.00 – 18.30 hrs On Tuesday 25 November the ‘unmissable’ UK Debut of Chianti Classico Gran Selezione takes place in London. Thirtyseven Chianti Classico producers will be showcasing their Gran Selezione wines at Sixty One Whitehall. The Gran Selezione is positioned at the summit of the DOCG’s quality pyramid, above the Chianti Classico Riserva and the Chianti Classico Annata (year’s vintage) which elegantly expresses the wineries’ finest vineyards. Several producers are seeking representation in the UK (see producer list at the end of the document). Master Class Programme Emily O’Hare will be presenting two special Master Classes with slightly differing themes: ‘What makes Gran Selezione different from Chianti Classico’ at 15.00 hrs In October, Emily spent time in Tuscany tasting both the Chianti Classico and the Chianti Classico Gran Selezione from each winery presenting their wines at this London debut. This gave her a valuable overview of precisely what the differences are and she will explore, with wines to illustrate her findings, the relationship of the two categories. ‘Sangiovese and its partners’ at 17.00 hrs There are some who might like to believe that a Chianti Classico should be made from 100% Sangiovese but this was never the case in the past and today the addition of a small percentage of other grape varieties, whether of Italian heritage or not, can be a very important element in the construction of the wine. Emily will explore the history of the variety of differing blends used to produce Chianti Classico and how today’s winemakers have adapted such blends to increase quality and look also at the opportunities provided by better clones and plant material to produce wines from 100% Sangiovese. There are still places available at the Master Classes please contact Tina Coady E: [email protected] to check availability.
