From the scenic hills of southern Tuscany comes this cheerful, food-loving Chianti from Banfi’s Colli Senesi vineyards. ‘Trarersa dei Monti’ means “across the hills,” and that’s exactly what it tastes like: a breezy ride through sun-drenched vineyards, ripe red fruit in your glass, and rustic beauty in every sip.
Made from 100% Sangiovese, it offers that signature cherry note, framed by soft tannins and a fresh finish. It’s less oak-driven than Classico—more about honest fruit and the joy of sharing a bottle with good food and good company. A classic trattoria wine in the very best sense.
Tasting Notes:
Sour cherry, cranberry, dried oregano, terra cotta, touch of spice.
Food Pairing:
Pasta pomodoro, salumi board, roast chicken, or eggplant parmigiana.
Accolades:
90 pts Falstaff; awarded Best Value Red under €15 (Italy Wine Journal).
Vineyard & Terroir:
Vineyards just outside Montalcino with clay and limestone soils. Elevated slopes offer diurnal shifts that preserve acidity.
Why We Like It:
Simple done right. It’s bright, balanced, and incredibly satisfying for its price. A daily drinker with a noble soul.
