Why do we like it?
'Retromarcia,' translating to "reverse" or "back up," symbolizes a return to classic Chianti Classico expressions. This wine is made solely from Sangiovese grapes, reflecting the winery's dedication to showcasing the purity and complexity of this noble grape. The vineyards from which the grapes are sourced are located in the highly regarded Panzano area, where a mix of Galestro, Alberese, and sandstone soils contribute to the wine's unique flavor profile. Monte Bernardi 'Retromarcia' Chianti Classico pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes that complement its bright acidity and grippy tannins.
