Tasting Notes

Vintage Description
Reviews

Aromas of ripe cherry, blackberry, and plum are layered with notes of baking spice, cocoa, and dried herbs. The palate delivers concentrated dark fruit flavors balanced by hints of chocolate, tobacco, and subtle earthiness. Medium to full-bodied with smooth, velvety tannins, the wine offers richness without heaviness. Bright acidity provides freshness and structure throughout. The finish is long and polished with lingering dark fruit and spice notes.

The Estate

Tenuta Sant’Antonio was founded by the Castagnedi brothers, whose family has farmed vineyards in Veneto for generations. The estate has become one of the leading quality-focused producers in Valpolicella, known for combining traditional techniques with modern precision. The Monti Garbi Ripasso is one of the winery’s flagship wines, showcasing the richness and complexity achieved through the historic Ripasso method.

Wine Making

The wine is produced using the traditional Ripasso method, where Valpolicella wine undergoes a second fermentation on the skins of Amarone grapes. This process adds depth, texture, and complexity while preserving freshness and drinkability. The wine is then aged in oak barrels to further integrate flavors and soften tannins. Estate-grown fruit from hillside vineyards contributes concentration and balance.

Food Suggestions

Pairs beautifully with braised beef, roasted pork, and grilled lamb. It also complements mushroom risotto, aged cheeses, and hearty pasta dishes with rich meat sauces. The wine’s balance of richness and freshness makes it highly versatile at the table.
