Grapes
90% Sangiovese and 10% Canailo
Vineyards
The harvest in October was carried out in fine dry weather and the fruit
was in optimum condition.
Vinification
Fermentation and maceration took place over 35 days. After aging in
wood for 18 months, the final blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10%
Canaiolo was bottled without filtration or fining. Bottles were then laid
down for 8 months prior to release.
Characteristic
The brilliant ruby color is as delightful as the aroma of sun-warmed red
cherries and raspberries along with the feral “terroir” characteristic of
Monsanto. On the palate, the subtle oak toastiness alternates with the
ripe fruit flavors as one glides to the lingering finish with its hints of
leather and cedar pencils (Ticonderoga).
