Monte Antico Rosso 2018 750 ml

Description:

The best selections of grapes are perfectly blended and aged one year in oak: 80% in Slavonian oak barrels, five to six years old, and 20% in barriques. The barriques are 10-20% new and 90-80% 2nd year. The wine is bottle aged for 12 months, and styled to a graceful balance of voluptuous berry tones and flexible/sturdy backbone. A food-friendly red with all the classic Tuscan seductiveness including delicious fruit, velvety, extract-fraught texture, full body, beautiful finish and superb balance. Dark ruby in color, its bouquet of leather, earth, herbs, black cherries, licorice, and plums is confirmed on the medium to full-bodied palate. Round, spicy, elegant, attractively fruity and extremely versatile- in others words food friendly and pocket friendly.

Blend: 85% Sangiovese, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot
