    Monsanto's Chianti Classico Annata is made from the estate's youngest vines and combines immediate drinkability with the depth that the soil at Monsanto imparts to all its wines. 90% Sangiovese, complemented by 5% each of Canaiolo and Colorino, comes from those plots that have proved particularly suitable for ageing in large casks. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled, truncated-cone-shaped steel tanks, accompanied by délestage and pumping over for 18 to 20 days. This is followed by around one year's ageing in large 50-hectolitre oak barrels, rounded off by three months' bottle ageing.

    A medium ruby red. On the nose, cherry, plum and delicate floral notes. On the palate, soft tannins, pleasant freshness and a well-balanced, spicy and mineral character. A prime example of the appellation every year. SUPERIORE.DE

    "The 2024 Chianti Classico is lithe, elegant and aromatic, as wines from Monsanto so often are. Crushed red berry fruit, rose petal, chalk and mint lend lovely upper register presence. Readers should expect a wine of understatement and class. Classic Monsanto all the way." Vinous
