The Wine

Country of origin:

Italy

Region:

Tuscany

The Monte Bernardi Estate is under the stewardship of brother and sister Michael and Jennifer Schmelzer. They arrived in Italy in 2000 fell in love with Chianti, acquired this now world-renowned winery and in 2003 the Retromarcia label marks a return to traditional winemaking practices. Making Chianti that is wonderfully bright, juicy, and superbly well balanced by classic sour cherry notes and a savouriness that cries out for traditional Tuscan fare, from Florentine steak to parpadelle pasta.

The Winemaker

Our estate wines are made only from grapes sourced from the vineyards we farm, picked at optimum ripeness and sorted by hand. We farm our vines biodynamically - this allows for the greatest expression of terroir, ultimate quality and harmony between our vineyards and the environment.

"Deep, ruby red with hints of purple. Clean, intense, with aromas of blackberry, cherry and red plums, anise and spice, and orange peel. In the mouth it is fresh and fruity, medium-bodied, well balanced, with a nice structure, juicy acidity and a long finish." Michael Schmelzer, Winemaker.
