Tasting notes
Showing a very crisp and vibrant quality of fruit, the Montevertine 2020 Pian del Ciampolo remains the most accessible wine in this celebrated trio of wines from Radda in Chianti. Based on the traditional blending formula of 90% Sangiovese with smaller parts Canaiolo and Colorino, it offers sour cherry, chopped mint and white stone over an elegantly polished mouthfeel. This vintage sees 20,000 bottles on the market.

The 2020 Pian del Ciampolo is racy, supple and textured, with lovely up front and plenty of charm. In this vintage, the Pian del Ciampolo is quite generous and forward. It's a wine of substance that captures the intensity of the year. As a reminder, Pian del Ciampolo is essentially equal parts press wine Montevertine and Pergole Torte and fruit that does not make it into the top two wines. It's a stellar Pian del Ciampolo.
