Chianti Classico, Tuscany, Italy
Monteraponi
Monteraponi is a small family estate in the hills between Florence and Siena, run by Michele Braganti with a focus on farming without chemicals and letting the wine speak for the place. This is their entry-level red — honest, food-friendly Chianti made the traditional way, without heavy oak or winemaker tricks.
