Traversa dei Monti, the new Chianti Colli Senesi by Banfi
The name of the wine, Traversa dei Montiimmediately leads us back to the road that connects Montalcino to the Maremma coast, also skirting the Banfi vineyards.
Even the label is evocative of the place where the wine is born. The Traversa dei Monti, in gold foil, traverses the vineyards that give the perception of earth to the touch, enhancing the luminosity and richness of our territory.
Elegant and assertive, the wine has a deep, intense mauve red colour. The nose is complex and intense, with aromas of ripe fruit and morello cherry accompanied by hints of dried flowers and spicy notes. Enveloping, soft and powerful, with a remarkable structure, it closes with a long and persistent finish.
