Monte Antico Rosso Toscana IGT 2020
Vintage Character
Monte Antico Rosso Toscana IGT 2020 is a Toscana IGT red built around Sangiovese, blended with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from selected vineyard sites across Tuscany. The 2020 vintage was broadly successful in Tuscany, with a generally warm, even growing season that helped ripen fruit fully while retaining enough freshness to keep the wine lively and balanced. Its regional blend captures the hallmark contrast of Tuscan terroir: sun-filled days, cooling nighttime influences, and a patchwork of hillside soils that support ripe cherry fruit, savory herbs, and firm but approachable structure.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, it offers lifted aromas of black cherry, red plum, violet, and wild berries, with gentle notes of vanilla, sweet spice, leather, and dried herbs. The palate is medium-bodied and smooth, combining juicy red and dark fruit with Sangiovese’s bright acidity and supple tannins, while Cabernet and Merlot add depth and roundness through the mid-palate. The finish is clean and softly savory, making it an easy match for grilled pork loin, baked eggplant parmigiana, or rosemary lamb chops.
Winery Background
Monte Antico was created by Neil and Maria Empson as a Tuscan red that would unite regional authenticity with everyday drinkability, and the project has long been associated with the guidance of renowned enologist Franco Bernabei. Rather than focusing on a single estate, the wine is assembled from carefully selected Tuscan fruit to express a dependable house style rooted in local character. Traditional grape composition, careful vineyard sourcing, and élevage that includes oak aging help give Monte Antico its signature mix of brightness, spice, and polish, making it a consistently reliable introduction to classic Tuscan red wine.
