Gorgeous wine just truly stunning. 2016 is somehow even better

Apr 6th, 2020As pretty a little Chianti as I could wish for. Profile is mossy with some cigar, sweet tobacco, cherry, and purple plum. So balanced, understated and raw. Not a show stopper, but a wine that wins you over with its earthy charm and unabashed deliciousness. There’s nothing I would add or take away.
This bottle grew on me more and more until, sadly, it was gone. Paired perfectly with pasta puttanesca. Bravo!

Like Monte B a lot for a broad shoulder style CC. Chianti in Panzano. Lots of sandstone here.

1 person found it helpfulSep 29th, 2014Med concentration with a ruby core fading out to deep pink. A touch of brett on the nose with med intensity and med complexity. Cherry cough medicine, leather, licorice, herbs, almond skins, and underripe red fruit. Taught structure on the palate with med + acid and tannin and med abv. Med complexity and body. Orange, bitter greens and all the other notes from the nose. Great balance. Med length. Great looking future ahead. #montebernardi #chianticlassico #riserva #sangiovese #tuscany #ctbucklinwine

Dec 8th, 2014Great bottle. Truly speaks of the soils and altitude in Panzano. Sa'etta is a single vineyard planted 40+ years ago. Sangiovese cento per cento.

Grippy, spice, dark red fruit. Very good and will get better as settles down and integrates.
