Montevertine 2022

Grape: Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Colorino
Vintage: 2022
Type: Red

This estate red wine blends sangiovese, canaiolo, and colorino sourced from mid-slope parcels in Radda in Chianti. The fruit grows on high-elevation galestro and limestone soils that naturally protect structural freshness during warm growing seasons. The winemaking involves a traditional twenty-five day skin maceration inside neutral concrete vats with native wild yeasts. The wine matures for two full years in large Slavonian oak casks to allow the components to settle naturally.

It pours a translucent ruby color, opening with a detailed bouquet of black cherry, dried sage, and blood orange zest. On the palate, a medium-bodied frame pairs a savory core of red fruit with fine-grained tannins. A sharp line of limestone acidity slices through the texture, providing excellent vertical lift. Subtle notes of iron and crushed gravel add depth across the fluid mouthfeel. It concludes with a long, bone-dry finish.
