!["Montanello" Rosato Toscana IGT 2020]()
“Montanello” Rosato Toscana IGT 2020
Wonderfully aromatic, fresh and inviting Rosato from the small family winery. Strong pink to cherry red. Fresh on the palate, with good structure and pleasant mouth-filling, fine acidity, fruity in the medium-long finish with beautiful berry and orange notes - for us a perfect companion to Mediterranean fish cuisine.

!["Ruspoli" Chianti Classico DOCG 2019]()
“Ruspoli” Chianti Classico DOCG 2019
Rich ruby red. Bouquet of rose hips and ripe raspberries, juicy and gripping on the palate. For us, another beautiful facet of the Chianti Classico, as it must be: authentic, drinkable and with excellent value! SUPERIORE.DE
"Sparkling ruby with a slight garnet shimmer. Shows fine scent of blossoms in the nose, some violets, wrapped in goji berries and ripe raspberries. Clear and straightforward on the palate, showing fresh fruit on the attack, fine-meshed tannin, firm and sturdy on the final." Falstaff

![Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG 2016]()
Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG 2016
Deep, dark Riserva with strong berry bouquet and intense spicy notes and notes of damp forest soil. On the palate firm, crunchy fruit, solid tannin, good length. Lots of energy, nice spice and great potential! SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2016 Chianti Classico Riserva is earthy and rich with a warm, velvety texture that spreads evenly over the palate. The wine shows dark fruit, dried blackberry and Morello cherry with an equal dose of leather, tar and spice. This is a dense and thickly textured medium to full-bodied Riserva with some dryness to the tannins and some mild astringency. It is a very tightly compacted and concentrated wine that would pair nicely with a maghmour, or Lebanese-style moussaka." Robert Parker

![Chianti Classico Gran Selezione DOCG 2017]()
Chianti Classico Gran Selezione DOCG 2017
Intense ruby garnet. Powerful nose of savoury cherries, spicy notes, liquorice and plum. Equally powerful, juicy and complex on the palate, with finely marked fruit and present, fine-grained tannin. The tension of this wine extends into the long finish. SUPERIORE.DE
"Seductive berry-chocolate aroma; compact in the mouth, the acidity integrated in a punctual way, long juicy final on cherries and leather. Delicious with roast duck breast." Vinum
"Rather sweet and gorgeous. An interesting blend of Tuscan hillside Sangiovese and some sweetness and polish. I could so imagine drinking this in a Manhattan wine bar or restaurant. It's attractively transparent so very 21st century, just a little sweeter than some, but super-charming." Jancis Robinson
"The Tenuta di Lilliano 2017 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is a lean and streamlined red wine to enjoy with some toasted Tuscan bread and chicken-liver terrine. With a full and elegant bouquet, it brings forward wild berry, wild rose, tilled earth and candied orange peel. The wine is tonic and clean with a pretty level of inner tension and grace that was not easy to achieve in this unusually dry and hot vintage." Robert Parker
"Ripe cherries and lightly stewed fruit on the nose with flowers and dried earth. Nutmeg, too. Full-bodied with loads of juicy fruit. Chewy at the end. Dense." James Suckling

The Tenuta di Lilliano is a small pearl in the confusing Chianti Classico wine-growing region. The company has remained true to its principles even during the seductive times of the Chianti boom, producing fantastic wines with a classic approach and modern touches. In 1958 Princess Eleonora Ruspoli Berlingieri started to produce and sell fine wines. Her family had acquired the estate in 1920. Today the Tenuta di Lilliano is owned by Giulio (manager) and Pietro Ruspoli. Located in the Elsa valley between Castellina and Monteriggioni, the estate covers an area of 460 hectares, 50 of which are planted with vines. Although the medieval structure has been preserved in topography, cellar and ring wall, the architectural structure changed until the 19th century.
The Tenuta di Lilliano produces wines, grappa and olive oil, but also offers travellers hospitality in ten ancient country houses, recently restored. The vineyards are planted exclusively with red wines - the local varieties Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino del Valdarno as well as the French Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot grapes. The berries thrive on mostly stony and calcareous Albereese soils. In new vineyards, Sangiovese has been planted exclusively with clones from the research project initiated by the Chianti Classico Consortium. "Chianti Classico 2000" come from.
The Tenuta di Lilliano mainly works traditionally during vinification and ageing. The fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled concrete tanks lined with glass. Depending on the type of wine, the further maturation of the plants takes place in steel tanks or barriques. Lorenzo Landi is the oenologist and Andrea Brunelli is the cellarmaster responsible for production. The bottle treasures in the estate's own wine cellar include the "Chianti Classico Lilliano"the "Chianti Classico Lilliano Gran Selezione" and the IGT wine "anagallis"whose name derives from a small orange flower growing in the Chianti area.

"The Ruspoli family has not abandoned their belief in something like the typicality of Chianti Classico, but with each new vintage they stakes out what we could understand as terroir." Andreas März, Editor-in-Chief Merum
