Like Boncie's flagship wine, 'Trame', 'Chiesamonti' is also a Sangiovese-dominant blend sourced from a single small parcel of vines. But the site is more stony and less argilous than Trame's. These rocky limestone soils contribute to Chiesamonti's fine tannins and assertive minerality, making a slightly more ethereal counterpart to Trame.
"Two thousand twenty-one is the single greatest young vintage I have ever tasted in Chianti Classico. Period. Full stop. The 2021s are majestic wines endowed with striking aromatics, layered fruit and all the energy that is such a signature of the appellation. Quality is consistently high across the region, while many wines hit breathtaking peaks of excellence … This is a historic vintage Vinous readers will want to pay close attention to."
"The 2021 Chiesamonti is a potent, full-bodied wine that is going to need time to unwind. Herbs, wildflowers, spice, leather and menthol build in this backward, potent red from Le Boncie. There’s plenty of stuffing and textural intensity in this deep, resonant wine. I can't wait to see how it ages." -95 points, Vinous 7/2024
