Agricola Querciabella Mongrana 2019 750ml – Organic
Local Delivery, Store Pickup, Standard Domestic Shipping
$23.75
Intense ruby red in the glass, the charm of Mongrana does not take long to reveal itself. Well-defined aromas of ripe fruit, morello cherry, blackberry and blueberry especially anticipate notes of kirsch, ivy, pine needles.
As soon as the wine opens up in the glass, a more complex bouquet starts to emerge with slight hints of leather, coffee powder and cocoa enriched by a touch of liquorice. Juicy, fresh sip, with soft tannins. The long finale is savoury with mineral, iron notes that persist in the mouth.

Vineyards | Querciabella in Maremma enjoys an ideal setting: close to the sea, surrounded by unspoilt nature, the estate benefits from the proximity to the Uccellina Natural Park’s highlands. |
Serving | 14–18° C (57–64° F) |
Food Pairing | This fruit-forward wine has present, yet soft tannins that make it easy to drink. Think of Mongrana as the wine you bring to a party when you don’t know the host’s taste. Its energetic personality is perfect for your Tuesday night Pizza Margherita with vegan Mozzarella and fresh Basil. The Mediterranean feel and flavour of this wine lend itself to the herbs of the region like Oregano and Thyme. sprinkled over a Zucchini Tian or a Panzanella Salad. If you fancy something heartier try it with Chickpea Soup with Farro and Porcini Mushrooms. |
Winemaking | From the onset, each grape variety is treated separately, from picking the best bunches of Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon according to their phenolic ripeness, through the whole vinification process up until the final blend. We harvest in the early hours of the morning when cooler temperatures help preserve the aromatic complexity of the grapes. Alcoholic fermentation is initiated by indigenous yeasts and is carefully overseen by our winemaker. Extended skin-contact maceration for up to 21 days with daily pump-overs allows for gentle extraction. Once the malolactic fermentation is complete, the wine is racked to cement vats, where it matures for at least ten months until it is ready to be blended and bottled. |
