Gran Selezione

From Monteraponi’s recently planted 1.5ha terraced vineyard, Bragantino is a selection of just enough fruit to fill one 10-hectolitre French oak cask. A lengthy 42 months of wood ageing is inspired by the likes of Soldera and Poggio di Sotto’s Riserva. A worthy follow up to the inaugural 2019 release, this opens with an intoxicating mix of sweet spice, Mediterranean flowers, smoke and tobacco leaf. The palate follows with mint-infused sour cherry and redcurrants. The wood is well-absorbed and melds seamlessly into firm, tightly woven tannins, with a sapid twist on the finish. It echoes the agility and measured power of its predecessor.
