THE WINE
The Chianti Colli Senesi 'Traversa dei Monti' is the new wine branded Banfi, a Chianti DOCG with a Montalcinese soul. Completely produced with the traditional varieties of Chianti, with a strong predominance of Sangiovese, sourced from the Montalcinese vineyards of the estate, the heart of the traditional Chianti territory, it boasts the subzone Colli Senesi. The name of the wine, Traversa dei Monti, immediately brings to mind the road that connects Montalcino to the Maremma coast, also bordering the Banfi vineyards. The label is also evocative of the place where the wine is born. The Traversa dei Monti, in gold foil, crosses the vineyards that, when touched, provide the perception of earth, enhancing the brightness and richness of our territory. Elegant and bold, the wine presents itself with an intense and deep mauve red color, complex and intense aromas, scents of ripe fruit and sour cherry accompanied by hints of dried flowers and spicy notes. Enveloping, soft, and powerful, with a remarkable structure, it finishes with a long and persistent finale.
THE COMPANY
Banfi was founded in 1978 thanks to the will of Italian-American brothers John and Harry Mariani. From the beginning, the two brothers envisioned a large-scale project, integrating quality viticulture with a modern winery with the aim of always maintaining a high quality level of the wines produced. Alongside the Mariani family, Ezio Rivella, one of the greatest Italian oenologists, immediately believed that due to the richness of the soil and the privileged microclimatic position, the acquired territories would have great potential for development. During those years, brothers John and Harry also acquired the historic Piedmontese winery Bruzzone, active since 1860 and specialized in the production of sparkling wines, to make it the Piedmont brand of the group, now Banfi Piemonte.
