"Clear ruby with dark purple highlights. Endearing nose of cherry, peony, coffee, fine spices and liquorice. The palate shows a welcome slenderness and exuberance, delightful fruit notes, very intense aromas and closely-integrated firmness. Will go far."

"Mature and composed in the primary profile offering notes of geraniums, black cherries, red prunes and black tea leaves. Full bodied, velvety tannins of optimum quality and a really juicy, enjoyable finale. Classic and rich in energy. Drink now or hold."

"Iris, camphor and cedar aromas emerge from the glass. The medium-bodied palate offers black plum, espresso and vanilla alongside polished tannins. It's already accessible but also offers good midterm aging potential. Drink through 2028. Kerin O'Keefe"

"Strahlendes Rubin mit leicht aufhellendem Rand. Eröffnet mit leicht mineralischen Noten, dazu Zedernholz, dann viel saftige Kirsche, sehr klar. Rund und saftig im Ansatz, zeigt fein herausgearbeitet Kirschfrucht, entfaltet sich mit geschliffenem, im Kern festem Tannin, gute Spannung und lange anhaltend."

"(100% Sangiovese aus Lagen mit Süd/Südwestausrichtung zwischen 400 und 500 m.ü.d.M) Helles Rubinrot. Direkt nach dem Öffnen eine Chianti-Duftwolke vom Feinsten, sehr intensiv, florale und würzige Noten wechseln sich ab, dazu findet man Marzipan, Zwetschgen, auch rotfruchtige Aromen, sehr verspielt. Im Auftakt rund, weich und zugänglich, die delikate Frucht erinnert an Sauerkirschen, wird von kuschelig-weichen Gerbstoffen umgarnt und von einer saftigen Säure gestützt, der Wein zeigt Trinkfluss, hat Eleganz, Authentizität und Balance und hallt im Abgang lange nach. Diese Gran Selezione ist ab sofort gefährlich verführerisch und sollte zu einem einfachen, schmackhaften Gericht serviert werden. Jetzt-2030+, 92 vvPunkte"

"Feinduftige Aromen nach Kirschen, Veilchen und Leder; füllige Textur, spürbare frische Säure, besitzt Saft und Fülle, die Säure ebenso frisch wie das Finish, aber der kompakte Stil nimmt für sich ein."

yr. 2018 Raffaele Vecchione - WinesCritic.com:

97 of 100 Points.

"Raffaele Vecchione - WinesCritic.com" has rated the wine "Barone Ricasoli Castello di Brolio Gran Selezione" from the vintage 2018 on 01.05.2021 with 97 of 100 points.

"A genuine expression of full, enveloping fruit giving pleasure with notes of cherry, mandarin rind, rose petals, dog rose and mulberry. In the background nuances of wisteria and sea salt give complexity to the matrix. Full bodied, silky, fine grain tannins that follow a pleasurable direction to the summit of the sip and a thin tense finale, typical of the great Sangiovese grown at altitude. Better from 2023."

yr. 2016 Wine Enthusiast:

"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Barone Ricasoli Castello di Brolio Gran Selezione" from the vintage 2016 on 01.03.2021 with 89 of 100 points.

"Blue flower, French oak and camphor aromas mingle together in the glass. Reflecting the nose, the austere palate features coconut, espresso and vanilla along with notes of prune and dried cherry. It's rather lean on fruit richness; close-grained tannins grip the close. Kerin O'Keefe"

yr. 2016 Raffaele Vecchione - WinesCritic.com:

97 of 100 Points.

"Raffaele Vecchione - WinesCritic.com" has rated the wine "Barone Ricasoli Castello di Brolio Gran Selezione" from the vintage 2016 on 01.06.2020 with 97 of 100 points.

"Che energia nel calice con note di ciliegie, lamponi, ribes, melograno e agrumi. La scena secondaria è di qualità eccelsa nella bellezza di pompelmo rosa, buccia di mandarino e succo di arancia. L'alatalena dei sentori prende forma nella spirale vorticosa che genera un profilo tridimensionale di tutto rispetto. Tannini dolci amabili sin da subito ed un finale luminoso e radioso nella chiusura. Che bello. Meglio dal 2022."

"Classico e bohemien nel carattere ricercato che rivela lâEUR(TM)essenza del Sangiovese purosangue made in Brolio. à^ maturo ma nasconde tratti intriganti nel leggero tocco riduttivo che andrà vi con lâEUR(TM)areazione. More, prugne rosse, lamponi, ribes e melograno si fondono nella gentilezza dellâEUR(TM)eleganza. Tanto chinotto e foglie di tè verde in sottofondo dominano la scena secondaria. Sandalo e canfora evolvono nella terziaria. Corpo medio- pieno, tannini delicati di grana fine ed un finale pieno nellâEUR(TM)equilibrio delicato. Bevi ora o invecchia."

"Che classe lâEUR(TM)equilibrio sensoriale che ben coniuga la qualità dei fiori rossi secchi, le mandorle tritate, le amarene sotto spirito, il caffè tostato, un sottile cuoio e la liquirizia dolce. Piccoli tocchi maturi al naso con foglia di pomodoro e sedano spezzato. Corpo medio, tannini maturi ed un finale tagliente ancora vivace e piacevole nella chiusura. Bevi ora."

Rund und geschmeidig in Ansatz und Verlauf, ein sehr weicher und runder Chianti, feinmaschiges Tannin, viel süßer Schmelz, im Finale fehlt vielleicht etwas Biss."

"Elegante Cuvée aus 90% Sangiovese, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon und 5% Petit Verdot. Der Wein wird acht Monate lang in Tonneaus ausgebaut, hiervon 30% in Erstbelegung. Ricasoli sieht dies als seinen «Grand Vin». Sehr feinkörnige Tannine, Sauerkirsche und Tabak, vollmundig ohne Schwere. Grand Vin? Grande Elégance!"

Weich und geschmeidig in Ansatz und Verlauf, zeigt schöne Zwetschken und Kirschennoten, öffnet sich mit weichem, dichtmaschigem Tannin, im Finale fester Druck."

"The nose is fruity, fine and relatively gourmand. It reveals notes of wild red berries, crushed strawberries and slight notes of raspberry, cassis combined with a touch of crushed blackberry, spicy notes aas well as a discreet touch of garrigue, oak and an imperceptible hint of mocha. The palate is fruity, mineral, silky, fine and offers an acid frame as well as a small fat. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of wild strawberry and raspberry associated with slight notes of cassis, black cherry as well as a hint of wood and spices. Tannins are fine and well-built. Good length."

"Château-Wein des Traditionsweingutes, bei dem viel Sangiovese mit etwas Merlot und Cabernet kombiniert wird: Klare Beerenaromatik, sehr linear; im Mund frisch, saftig, gute, perfekt eingebundene Gerbstoffe, lang und facettenreich im Abgang. Hie gefallen Eleganz und Schliff."

"Funkelndes, intensives Rubin. Reiche und einladende Nase, klar nach Himbeeren, Zwetschge, fruchtig und saftig. Am Gaumen cremig, öffnet sich mit viel geschmeidigem, feinmaschigem Tannin, rund und ausgewogen, im Finale dezente Vanillenoten und etwas Holz, das sich aber mit zunehmender Reife besser einbinden sollte."

"Aromas suggest toasted oak, rubber, red currant and espresso. The palate offers red cherry, cranberry, coconut, roasted coffee bean, vanilla and licorice alongside astringent tannins. There's not enough fruit richness to stand up to the drying oak."
