Montesecondo represents the most forthright expression of Sangiovese from this land. Aging in cement tanks allows the tannin in the grapes to soften, leaving room for the expression of the fruit and giving light to the wine. The grapes come from the youngest vineyards where an airy planting density was chosen where the plants could grow in less competition with each other.

Purity and pleasure, a "gentle" Sangiovese that does not show its muscles as much as its fresh, fruity soul. The 12 degrees alcohol certifies a ready and enjoyable drink for a wine that is not only good and tasty but also refined and elegant.

From the producer

Montesecondo

Silvio Messana is a difficult character to describe in a few lines. In his life a thousand travels and experiences have led him to develop a deep sensitivity to music as an art form and viticulture. He was born in Florence but immediately the family moved to North Africa where he remained until the age of 18.

Upon returning to Italy, the family began to take care of a piece of land planted with vines in San Casciano in Val di Pesa, on the outskirts of the Chianti Classico region, and he began to develop a passion for music: here began another important chapter in his life that saw him move to Boston to Berkley University to study music with a special predilection for the saxophone.

His subsequent move to New York marks his first definitive contact with wine. In fact, he works as a composer of soundtracks but also as a wine salesman for top import agencies of artisanal wines.
