WINE DESCRIPTION

Monte Antico Rosso is a red wine produced by the renowned Tuscan winery, Monte Antico. The grapes are sourced from select vineyards around Tuscany. The wine is made using Sangiovese, with a small percentage of Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. It undergoes a traditional winemaking process, including fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is a well-balanced blend, with aromas of black cherry, vanilla, and spice, and a medium-bodied palate with soft tannins and a long, persistent finish. Monte Antico Rosso is an excellent example of a traditional Tuscan red wine, known for its approachability and versatility.
