Founded in the 1990s, the estate gained international recognition under owner and winemaker Fabio Chiarelotto, a former historian who radically overhauled the vineyards starting in the late 1990s. Chiarelotto practices organic\/biodynamic farming. In the cellar, he uses natural yeasts, relies on relatively short macerations, avoids heavy new oak influence, and bottles without filtration. His focus has been strictly on achieving restraint, elegance, and finesse, creating incredibly vibrant, food-friendly wines. Production number on these are very tiny - only approximately 3,500 bottles for eh Nardo and  3,000 bottles of Gabbro.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate spans roughly 15 to 20+ hectares of vines. Their portfolio focuses primarily on Toscana IGT red blends mixing indigenous Italian varieties with international grapes. The vines sit on lime-rich petrified clay, limestone, schist, and silex soils. Strong coastal winds from the nearby Tyrrhenian Sea cool the grapes, injecting a distinctive mineral drive into the wines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The 2024 Gabbro, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, is one of the classiest wines I have ever tasted from Montepeloso. Black cherry, graphite, new leather, licorice and black pepper scream from the glass. This is Cabernet Sauvignon with a Tuscan soul. I can’t wait to taste it in finished form.
