Rocca di Montegrossi Chianti Classico comes from the estate of Marco Ricasoli-Firidolfi near the hamlet of Monti in Chianti, about seven kilometres south of Gaiole in the heart of the Chianti Classico zone. Marco is a descendant of Bettino Ricasoli, the Iron Baron credited with creating the original Chianti Classico formula, and the estate in its current form made its first vintage in 1995.
The wine is a blend of Sangiovese with a small proportion of Canaiolo, grown on south and southeast facing slopes at roughly 340 to 500 metres on galestro and alberese soils. The vineyards, first planted by Marco's father in 1966, have been certified organic since 2010. Fermentation takes place in upright wooden vats, followed by ageing in large, used French oak casks and a further rest in bottle before release.
Deep ruby in colour, it shows dark cherry and black raspberry fruit layered with spice, black pepper, earthy forest floor and a hint of smoke. The palate is framed by fine grained tannins and fresh acidity, a classic and characterful expression of Gaiole Sangiovese.
