The first wine was produced in 1992. The Schmelzer family purchased Monte Bernardi at the end of 2003 and are now building on what Stak successfully started, investing money in both the vineyards and the winery. The Monte Bernardi estate extends over 53 hectares (130 acres), of which 5 hectares (12 acres) are vineyards of an average age of over 35 years. The vineyards are situated in the hilly, southern most region of Panzano, an area that has been acknowledged as one of the Grand Cru of Chianti Classico, and is considered capable of making wines that can compete with the best in the world. The vines are planted on a soil of a high rock content mixture, which dependent on the vineyard consists of shale (Galestro), marl and limestone (Alberese). The vineyards are perfectly situated - standing at an altitude of 350 meters above sea level, surrounded by forests and enjoying a southern exposure, with the river Pesa flowing just a few hundred meters to the south. These factors contribute to the unique micro-climate of Monte Bernardi. |
