The 2023 growing season offered a classic, slow ripening period that favored aromatic complexity and bright, lively fruit development. Fermentation takes place entirely in traditional concrete vats, with gentle maceration to prevent over-extraction of rustic tannins. The wine is then aged for twelve months in large Slavonian oak casks, a decision intended to soften the edges of the young Sangiovese while protecting its vibrant, unadorned varietal character. It stands as a beautifully approachable, energetic snapshot of a legendary estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it shows a translucent, bright ruby hue with youthful purple reflections. The nose is incredibly fresh and inviting, bursting with notes of wild red cherry, pomegranate, red licorice, and a distinct hint of damp forest floor. On the palate, a crunchy, high-toned core of red-berried fruit is supported by a fine-grained, \"crystalline\" tannin structure that avoids any heavy astringency. A sweeping wave of cool-climate acidity cuts straight through the mid-palate, giving the wine an effortlessly fluid and athletic mouthfeel. The finish is remarkably clean, dry, and mouthwatering, leaving behind a subtle, savory trace of white pepper and crushed stone.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Montevertine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49838560313584,"sku":"B4","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/3678\/4368\/files\/Comingsoon.png?v=1768455940","url":"https:\/\/www.lessismorewines.com\/products\/montevertine-pian-del-ciampolo-2023","provider":"LESS IS MORE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
