My fair and humble State is very fortunate to get what we get but when it comes to Azienda Agricola Montevertine, we often get plenty of the eponymous Montevertine and even our fair share of Pergole Torte. However, when it comes to Pian del Ciampolo, we seem to get slighted. Maybe the restaurants hoard it all? Anyway, I was able to get my hands on this one without much effort and I’m so happy I did.

Popped and poured; consumed over two days. Delightful on both. Th enable is slightly different for the 2019 vintage in order to celebrate what would have been Sergio Manetti's 100th birthday. The wine pours a beautiful ruby color, medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is intense and complex with crushed raspberries, cherry, pomegranate, cranberry, bergamot, dried herbs, dusty earth, wet stone. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin, medium+ acid and confirmed the tart red fruits, dried herbs, orange citrus, and earth. Long satisfying finish that is somewhat savory. It does seem to gain just a little weight on Day 2 which was, for this palate, well received. A lovely, and classic example of Chianti Classico (though it’s not labeled as such). Killer with food yet lovely on its own as well. Drink now and over the next 10 years. — 2 years ago

Sparkling erbaluce from alto Piemonte. Lovely citrus nose. Tremendous right fruit - such great fruit you’d think it has dosage even thought It doesn’t. Springy minerality. Alive on the palate. Great juiciness. Some nice richness. Wow. Great wine. Bought from fass selections. — 5 years ago

Really like it. Not acidic almost at all. A little apple juice-y and sweet which is nice. Valentine's day belated celebration. Tom bought it at the sketchy liquor store next to lucky 97. Says 92 points on wine enthusiast. Really simple label that just says Sergio so I took a pic of the back. — 9 years ago

Oh yeah. Age this thing a bit and thank me later. What a treat. Golden and mellow. Round and fluffy. Legit one of the most delicious whites I’ve ever had. And I’ve had this before. The age is the difference. — 4 years ago

Sublime! At the recommendation of Sergio Mignanelli of Osteria 44 in Rome, we ventured into the land of Valpolicella and were delighted by this fragrant Corvino with hints of luscious dark fruit. — 5 years ago
