Monte Antico Italian Red
Everyday Tuscan red, stocked in Commack and ready for the table.
The story behind Monte Antico
Toscana is the broad regional name for red wine from Tuscany, and it usually means a dry, food friendly blend built around Sangiovese, sometimes with a little Merlot or Cabernet for roundness. Expect red cherry, dried herb and a firm but gentle grip, with modest tannin and bright acidity that cuts through tomato and olive oil.
We keep Monte Antico Toscana 750mL here at our Commack shop. It is a small allocation for us, so what is on the shelf is what we have.

Which Monte Antico is right for you?
Monte Antico Toscana 750mL is $12.99, which puts it in everyday drinking territory rather than special occasion territory. At that price we suggest buying two: one for tonight with pasta or a red sauce, one to keep on hand. Call the shop at (631) 343-7200 to check current stock before you drive over.
Cheap enough to open on a Tuesday with tomato sauce.
Dry, savory and flexible with pizza, pasta or grilled sausage.
Monte Antico cocktails and pairings
Serve it slightly cool, around 60 to 65 degrees, in a wide glass so the cherry and herb notes open up.
