Super Tuscan blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon from a ‘superstar’ coastal estate. Wine expert James Suckling wrote, "Montepeloso is one of the emerging superstars on the Tuscan Coast".
Since 1999 Fabio Chiarelotto has been at the helm. An ardent perfectionist in both the vineyard and the cellar, he replanted the vineyards with the finest clones, reduced yields and introduced finest winemaking practices to express the true potential of the estate's terroir.
In 2007 Silvio Denz, owner of a handful of top Bordeaux estates (Péby Faugères and Faugères in Saint-Emilion, plus another in Sauternes), invested in the estate and further boosted quality.
This 'super Tuscan' blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon has more than a touch of class about it – it's beutifully crafted by winemaker Fabrio Moltard, who has worked with Angelo Gaja, legendary Italian winemaker and head of the historic Gaja winery in Piedmont.
