Tenuta di Arceno Strada al Sasso Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2020 is the estate's flagship single-vineyard Sangiovese, crafted from the renowned Strada al Sasso vineyard in the southern reaches of Chianti Classico. Recognised as one of Tuscany's premier Gran Selezione wines, it represents the purest expression of the estate's terroir, combining power, elegance, and exceptional ageing potential.

The 2020 vintage delivered excellent balance between concentration and freshness, producing wines with vibrant fruit character, refined tannins, and remarkable aromatic complexity. Sourced from a vineyard planted with carefully selected Sangiovese clones, Strada al Sasso reflects the unique combination of galestro and clay-rich soils that contribute to the wine's distinctive mineral profile and structural depth.

Aged in French oak barrels and further refined in bottle before release, this Gran Selezione showcases the precision and sophistication that have established Tenuta di Arceno among the leading producers of Chianti Classico.
