Score 87/100 · Drink 2013, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Aug 2010

The 2008 Chianti Monrosso is an entry-level wine made from estate owned vineyards in Chianti rather than Chianti Classico. The Monrosso is a straightforward, simple red with attractive fruit, floral aromatics and lovely balance, particularly at this level.

The 2008 Chianti Monrosso is an entry-level wine made from estate owned vineyards in Chianti rather than Chianti Classico. The Monrosso is a straightforward, simple red with attractive fruit, floral aromatics and lovely balance, particularly at this level. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2012. Monsanto is a reference-point producer for fine Chianti. The estate’s top bottlings have a brilliant track record, but these entry-level wines deliver almost as much pleasure at much more accessible prices. Importer: Moet Hennessy USA, New York, NY; tel. (212) 251-8200
