Description
Monte Antico, which means ancient mountain, is a tribute to Tuscany. The quintessential Tuscan grape, Sangiovese, is blended with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon to create something that is more than the sum of its parts.
Deep ruby color with garnet reflections, its elegant bouquet of leather, black cherries, licorice and plums preludes a medium to full-bodied palate where ripe red fruit, subtle notes of vanilla and violets harmonize and linger, interlacing with the soft tannins and silky texture. Perfect integration of acidity and fruit, medium finish. Extremely versatile and food-friendly; serve with all types of pasta, risotto, meat, and cheeses. (from the vintner)
