Querciabella, Mongrana 2022

"The 2022 Mongrana is a fun, juicy wine to drink now and over the next handful of years. Bright red cherry fruit, spice, mint, tobacco and leather add layers of nuance. Floral and savory accents linger. There's a bit of dryness on the finish, but that's a small critique for a wine that offers so much value." Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The name Querciabella is perfectly fitting for this Chianti estate, surrounded by a sheltering forest of magnificent trees. Twenty Twenty-Four marks the 50th vintage for the estate and the beginning of a new era with Mita Castiglioni, eldest daughter of Pepito, taking the reins. Under her leadership, Querciabella continues to be one of Italy's most innovative wineries, pioneering vegan and biodynamic practices. With the expertise of talented South African winemaker Manfred Ing, Querciabella consistently produces some of the purest expressions of Chianti Classico as well as Super-Tuscans with their acclaimed wines Camartina, Palafreno and one of Italy's most celebrated white wines, Batàr, alongside a range of exciting wines from the Maremma region.
