Chianti Classico 2022

Rocca di Montegrossi is located in Monti in Chianti (Gaiole) in the heart of Chianti Classico. The name comes from the historic fortress that was built during the Longobard period (600-800 AD) by Geremia, ancestor of the Ricasoli-Firidolfi family, and destroyed in 1530. Marco is part of the Ricasoli family that wrote the story of Chianti Classico, creating the formula for the wine we know today at the site of what is now his San Marcellino vineyard.

This is mostly Sangiovese (90+ %) with small amounts Canaiolo and Colorino, aged in casks for 14 months.  Dark cherry and plum fruit, rich and concentrated with refreshing savouriness and silky tannins.
