    Product Description

    From the Winery:
    Situated in the heart of the Chianti district, Montevertine was first developed in the 11th century and was purchased by Sergio Manetti in 1967. Montevertine is now in the hands of Martino Manetti, son of Sergio, who remains dedicated to the style and philosophy of his father. Pian del Ciampolo is the winery’s entry-level wine. Mostly Sangiovese with a kiss of Colorino and Canaiolo, the organically grown Pian del Ciampolo derives from the same vineyards as the estate’s flagship wine. Graceful and finessed, Pian del Ciampolo offers Sangiovese’s trademark red and blue fruits and the grape’s jaunty acidity, as well as Montevertine’s telltale understated, skillful hand.

    “The 2017 Pian del Ciampolo is rich, dense and almost shockingly concentrated. A rush of super-ripe red cherry Sangiovese fruit, cedar, tobacco, menthol, licorice and dried flowers builds in an unusually supple, racy Pian del Ciampolo that will drink beautifully right out of the gate. Stylistically, the 2017 reminds me of the 2015 in its generous, rich personality, but there is a good bit of freshness as well. More than anything, Pian del Ciampolo is a real overachiever in 2017. Drinking window: 2020-2032. 91 points
