Striking a seemingly perfect balance between plushness and precision, the Monte de Sassi leads out with hushed and silky red cherry fruit and layer upon layer of wild flower aromatics (seriously, flower power to the max!), the small portion of whole cluster lending a nicely herbal green note that acts to keep the juiciness in check. Open-knit and honest right from the get go...this Chianti-not-so-classico’s razzle dazzle in enough to bring a curious smile to any drinker’s face.
