75% Sangiovese, 15% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon | Monte Antico means ancient mountain in Italian. And in the world of fine wines, it is a unique combination of quality, reliability and value since 1977. The label belongs to Neil and Maria Empson, who launched this Super Tuscan five years after founding Neil Empson Selections. Their love for Tuscany led them to make their very own wine on Tuscan soil. With the help of master winemaker Franco Bernabei, they made a wine using Sangiovese, Tuscany’s grape par excellence, expressing its potential and complementing it with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.
TASTING NOTES
A Tuscan classic! Deep ruby red with garnet reflections, it boasts elegant aromas of leather, black cherry, licorice and plum. The palate is medium to full-bodied with flavors of ripe red fruit, goût de terroir, and subtle notes of vanilla and violet; silk texture with soft tannins, a firm backbone, the perfect integration between acidity and fruit, and a pleasant finish.
