| Description: | Founded in 1974, Monteraponi is managed by Michele Braganti, a young businessman with clear ideas and strong personality. Over the past decade, he has significantly shaken the balance of power in Chianti Classico. The Monteraponi village is a 200-hectare medieval hamlet, once home to Baron Ugo, the Marquis of Tuscany in the tenth century. It was purchased by the Braganti's father in the 70s but his father did not commercialize his wines. Nestled amongst dark forests and silver olive trees, four native varieties are cultivated organically across 12 hectares of vineyards, many of which are farmed by hand due to the steep incline. Monteraponi wines are now fine examples of the Radda style: tightly acidic, slightly floral, laced with minerals and exuding elegance. Braganti loves Burgundy and certain wines of Piedmont, and seeks to make something similar at his estate. |
