Monteraponi is a 10th Century village on a hilltop of the same name. The wine cellars underneath date from this period, making for a truly historic winery and vineyards in the heart of Tuscany. Old vine Trebbiano is grown amid chestnut, oak, and olives trees in a natural amphiitheater with southerly exposure. Hand-harvested, and hand sorted, this delicately crafted Trebbiano is rich and powerful. Elegantly structured with concentrated fruit, dry and full-bodied, the herbaceous, spicy, and savory aromas combine with a linear minerality. It is aged in large Burgundian and Austrian oak barrels. Made in a more natural style, you may want to decant to remove sediment. A wine for the table, pair with rich pork dishes and strong cheese.
