CHIANTI CLASSICO

Montecalvi’s vineyards are among the finest in the Chianti Classico area, on sandstone/ clay soil at an altitude of 250 m above sea level and with ideal south/ south-east/ south-west exposures. They farm their vineyards (and all of their estate) organically and sustainably. Chianti Classico is Sangiovese's viticultural epicentre and Montecalvi's Chianti Classico is the beating heart of the Montecalvi estate. This wine is made from Sangiovese from the Montecalvi vineyard, complemented by a touch of Canaiolo and Canina Nera (with a good percentage of whole bunches in the ferment). This wine sees around 30 days in stainless steel tank, 18 months in French oak tonneaux and six months in bottle prior to release. Silky smooth texture, perfectly balanced acidity with rustic red ripe fruits – this is sure a wine that will knock the socks off any level of a wine drinker for sure. Montecalvi Chianti Classico 2019 received 94 points from Emily O’Hare, Decanter Magazine.
