2021 A.V. Rocca di Montegrossi, Sangiovese Blend | Monti, Gaiole, Chianti Classico, Tuscany, Italy

Varietal(s): 92% Sangiovese, 6% Canaiolo, 2% Colorino

Vineyard Management: Certified Organic (2010)

Winemaking: Hand-harvested, Indigenous fermentation in lined concrete tanks, aged for 11 months in a mixture of cement tank and large neutral oak tini, unfined/unfiltered

Vegan: Yes

Typicity: Could not be more typical. The winemaker's great-great-great grandfather created the first 'formula' for the Chianti blend in 1872. 

Bio: Marco Ricasoli-Firidolfi is a 37th generation winemaker in Monti, a prized micro-region in the heart of Chianti. The family has cultivated vines here for centuries, long before there was a Tuscany, let alone an Italy. Of the 250 acre estate, the family's 50 acres of vines have all been converted to organic farming in 2006 with certification in 2010.

Aside from that, the wines are made pretty much the same way his ancestors would have made them.
