Pian del Ciampolo Toscana Rosso IGT 2023 by Montevertine

Pian del Ciampolo Toscana Rosso IGT 2023 by Montevertine is a Tuscan red wine that combines balance, immediacy, and personality.

Territory and wine style

The wine comes from the territory of Radda in Chianti, in the province of Siena, an area suited for the cultivation of red grapes that offers elegant, fresh, and well-defined wines. Although it is a Toscana Rosso IGT, the Pian del Ciampolo clearly reflects the connection to its environment of origin and the winemaking tradition of the area. Vinification in cement and aging in Slavonian oak barrels help maintain a precise, harmonious sip that is not overly extracted, enhancing the purity of the fruit and the typical imprint of Sangiovese.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a bright ruby red color. The aromatic profile recalls marasca, small red forest fruits, rose, and red field flowers, with delicate vegetal nuances that enhance its finesse. On the palate, it is fresh, smooth, and fruity, with a lively but well-integrated tannic structure and a pleasant sensation of sapidity and minerality. The finish is clean, persistent, and consistent with an elegant, territorial, and very gastronomic style.
