The 2014 Geremia, Rocca di Montegrossi's Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon blend, is another compelling wine in this range. Today, the Geremia is perhaps a bit austere, but at least some of that is attributable to the personality of the vintage. Time in the glass brings out an attractive range of sage, menthol, licorice and dark red/purplish fruit. I very much like the energy and drive here.

An intense red, boasting an expressive range of kirsch, raspberry, floral, mineral and spice flavors, nicely offset by a vibrant structure. All the elements come together on the lingering aftertaste. Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2020 through 2032. 1,000 cases made, 215 cases imported.

We adore the wines of Rocca di Montegrossi and their Super-Tuscan, Geremia is often the star of the show. Unequivocally this is the case in 2014. This is just starting to show its stuff with great energy and freshness with a ton of tannin and long lingering finish. 95 points and just a few magnums up for grabs, this will not disappoint.
About the Producer
Rocca di Montegrossi is located near Monti in Chianti, one of the finest sections of Chianti Classico, about 7 km south of Gaiole. Rocca di Montegrossi's owner, Marco Ricasoli-Firidolfi, is descended from a family that played a central role in the history of the Chianti Classico region and laid the foundations for Chianti Classico wine. The estate extends over an area of 100 hectares; 20 are planted to vine, another 20 are olive groves. The vineyards, on gentle south and southeast-facing hillsides with calcareous loamy soils, are at elevations between 340 and 510 meters above sea level. Simply put, this is one of the finest producers in all of Chianti with wines that offer tremendous quality to price ratio.
