About the wine

Castello Monsanto is located in the core region, Chianti Classico, which is one of the most beautiful regions in Italy. Sangiovese is mostly grown here. Laura Bianchi and her team take great care of the castle and the great wines.

James Suckling: 97/100
Item no. 1208794
Tasting note
Dark berries, some undergrowth, spicy-mentholic notes, cinnamon, cocoa, leather. At a young age, a bit more reserved than the Riserva, but no less exciting. On the palate, on the one hand, with presence, on the other hand, with a tense reluctance, which is still to be expected with a few years of patience. The silky tannins and minerality in the aftertaste already give the wine an unmistakable, elegant note.
Culinary recommendation
Goes well with festive main courses and aged cheeses.
Vinification
Temperature-controlled fermentation for approx. 22 days. Aging for 20 months in 3800l Slovenian oak barrels and 2 years in bottle.
