Monsanto Chianti Classico Riserva 2020 is a Sangiovese-dominant red wine from Castello di Monsanto in Barberino Val d'Elsa, Chianti Classico DOCG, Tuscany. It is composed of 90% Sangiovese with Canaiolo and Colorino, hand-picked at optimal ripeness. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by 18 months in French oak barriques and three months of bottle rest before release. The nose opens with ripe Bing cherry and blood orange, then earthier notes of potting soil, graphite and peat moss, with sage, lavender, vanilla and cedar. The palate is juicy and fresh, with black cherry, blackberry, eucalyptus and cumin, medium-to-full body, sweet tannins and chocolate, vanilla and rocky mineral tones. The finish is long and lingering, with black tea, savory herbs, graphite and persistent minerality alongside ripe fruit.
