Monte Chiaro Chianti 345 DOCG 2022 ØKO

Monte Chiaro Chianti 345 DOCG 2022 ØKO is a classic, organically made Chianti that captures the soul of the Siena hills in a single glass. Crafted from a traditional blend of Sangiovese and rare indigenous varieties, it offers a refined yet authentic expression of everyday Tuscan drinking culture. This wine pays homage to the historic Chianti Colli Senesi zone, where respect for land, native vines, and local traditions shapes every bottle.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Chianti shows a vibrant ruby-red color with youthful purple hues at the rim, underlining its freshness and energy. The nose is intense and inviting, with bright red cherry and ripe raspberry layered over floral notes of rose. Subtle balsamic nuances and a gentle dusting of cinnamon add complexity and a savory Tuscan twist. On the palate, Monte Chiaro Chianti 345 is harmonious and classically dry, with a mouthwatering, almost saline edge that keeps the wine lively and food-friendly. Fine, mild tannins frame flavors of cherry, red berries, and a distinctive blood orange zest that is typical of the Colli Senesi style, reinforced by fresh acidity and elegant structure. Enjoy it now for its vibrancy and charm, or over the next 3–6 years as the fruit and spice integrate further and the texture becomes even more supple.

Production
Sourced from organically farmed vineyards in the rolling hills just outside Siena, this Chianti reflects a terroir of sun-drenched slopes, well-drained soils, and constant breezes that preserve aromatic freshness. The blend is rooted in Sangiovese (75%) and completed with small but significant portions of Canaiolo, Colorino, Malvasia Nera, Foglia Tonda, and Barsaglina, all traditional Tuscan varieties that add color, spice, and depth. Grapes are harvested with a focus on optimal ripeness and quality, then vinified in a classic, straightforward Chianti style designed to highlight purity of fruit and regional character rather than heavy oak influence, allowing the Colli Senesi personality to shine through in the glass.

Food & Serving
This is a natural partner for everyday Tuscan-inspired fare: think tomato-based pasta dishes, rustic salumi, and aged or semi-aged pecorino, as well as simple tomato bruschetta drizzled with good olive oil. Serve at 16–18°C to preserve the wine’s freshness and aromatic lift. A brief decant of 20–30 minutes can help open up the balsamic and floral notes, but it is equally enjoyable poured straight from the bottle in a relaxed, convivial setting.
