Montevertine 2022 is a wine that embodies the authentic essence of Chianti, produced on the Radda in Chianti estate from vineyards located at 425 meters above sea level. This ruby red with lively reflections releases a bouquet of ripe cherry, raspberry, violet, and a touch of aromatic herbs, with a mineral note that reflects the marl-rich soil. Spontaneously fermented in concrete tanks and aged in Slavonian oak barrels, it offers a fresh and harmonious palate, with fine tannins and a lingering finish. The warm yet well-balanced 2022 vintage makes this wine a lively and versatile expression, ideal for pairing with Tuscan dishes or enjoyed young, with aging potential until 2035.
Production Method: The grapes come from the 18 hectares of Montevertine vineyards, divided into nine parcels on clay-limestone soils with marl, located at 425 meters above sea level. Harvest is manual, with spontaneous fermentation in 150-hl concrete vats for approximately 20-25 days, including malolactic fermentation. Aged for 24 months in large Slavonian oak barrels (5.5 to 18 hl), followed by 6 months in bottle. No selected yeasts or new wood are used, preserving the typical Sangiovese character.
Pairings: Pasta with ragù, Florentine steak, Tuscan cured meats, medium-aged cheeses.
