Il Monticello
Il Monticello operates in Liguria, the narrow coastal region of Northern Italy where Mediterranean influence shapes both vineyard and cellar. The winery draws on indigenous varieties suited to the region's challenging terrain: Vermentino for white wines of mineral precision, and a blend of Ciliegiolo, Sangiovese, and Canaiolo Nero for its red offerings. Poggio Paterno Vermentino and Groppolo Vermentino represent the winery's work with this aromatic, high-acid white, while Rupestro Rosso showcases the structure and complexity that emerge from the Tuscan-influenced red blend. Wine Advocate has rated these wines, reflecting their technical merit within the broader context of Ligurian production.
