| 2001 Monte Antico IGT | 750 ML | $9.99 | 87 Points! Robert Parker's Wine Advocate # 152 Apr 2004 Reviewer: Daniel Thomases A cuvee created to the specifications of Neil Empson by Franco Bernabei, Monte Antico has long been an important example of affordable and pleasurable Tuscan wine, Sangiovese, for the masses. The 2001 Monte Antico is no exception, and the varietal notes are immediately present in the aromas of cranberries and cherries, tobacco, and violets. Savory and long on the palate with light tannins and a tonic acidity, the freshness and vitality of the finish should guarantee another five or six years of good drinking.
