  2. About us Montemaggio follows the concept of a very high quality “Terroir” wine. We have a chance to look at the quality of wine in every bottle and make sure that customer gets a very special product. The wines have been planted with a very high density per hectare (6250 plants/hectare in some vineyards). During the harvest, every bunch undergoes considerable selection in the vineyard and later again in the vinery. Harvest is carried out manually, and only when the grapes are perfectly ripe. Therefore, it could be said that Fattoria di Montemaggio’s wines are 100% hand- made, and they preserve all the quality of the elements that are a part of the land where they have been cultivated. www.montemaggio.com

  3. Chardonnay di Montemaggio IGT is a white organic Tuscan wine that was made for the first time in 2010. A white wine, morbid and balanced, with a straw-like yellow color with reflections of gold. It’s fresh flavor with notes of tropical fruits, flowers, straw, honey and spices is very pleasant for the palate. Other details Before the fermentation, grapes are manually selected in boxes and screened on the table usually at the end of August. Furthermore, grapes is delicately stemmed and softly pressed. The must obtained is clarified in stainless steel through decanting at controlled temperatures for a day. The must, subsequently, ferments at controlled temperatures in tonneaux or barrique. When the fermentation is completed, the Chardonnay di Montemaggio is left with the yeasts for some days then decanted and put back in tonneaux until bottling. After about few months in the wood, the wine is bottled and released to the market after a little bit of aging. It is bottled with transparent glass corks to preserve its authentic taste and prevent the risk of deterioration. It is a very functional cork as it can be used for a long time.

  4. Rosé di Montemaggio IGT is an organic Tuscan wine with a vivid rose color, and a fruity bouquet. It is made from 100% Sangiovese grapes and it has a full and refreshing taste. It is the result of the transient encounter with the must of the Sangiovese grapes’ skin. The short hours spent together give to this wine its vivid rose color and a morbid character with a bit of acidity, freshness and lightness. Other details Rosé di Montemaggio is mainly produced with grapes picked from an early harvest from the cooler areas of the Sangiovese vineyards, for the purpose of obtaining good acidity, a lower alcoholic gradation and therefore obtaining freshness and lightness in the wine. The skins are left in contact with the liquid for only one night until achieving the desired coloration and the necessary complexity.

  5. Subsequently, the skins are separated and the fermentation takes place at low temperatures in stainless steel vats for few days. The wine is bottled following about few months of refinement and released into the market when we think that is finally ready. The bottle of this rose wine has a glass pink cork to preserve the quality and the authentic taste of this wine. During the last few years Rose wine finally gained the attention it long deserved and the consumption of it started to rise. However just few years back for some reason the general public believed that Rose was done purely from the second-hand grapes that somehow were not good enough for the production of the red wines. This misconception is not applicable to Rose di Montemaggio, which is done from 100% Sangiovese ( same as Classico, Riserva and Gran Selezione) but taken from a different part of the vine lines and different parts of the estate.

  6. We try to pick earlier then the full maturation in order to increase the acidity, and hence decrease the alcohol. As a result we have a very fresh wine, with a lot of vivid colour – an ideal summer (or not only…..) companion. Make sure to notice the glass cork too – which saves a lot of wine from the defects of the cork, but still remains sophisticated and classy method of bottle closure. You can then recycle it as a jar for the water or olive oil.
