Umberto Cesari Il Poggio seems to be a quite different animal... Here is
some info:
This is where Umberto Cesari has 130 acres of vineyards near the ancient
Roman road leading from Milano to Rimini.
Il Poggio is considered by many to produce some of the best wines of Emilia
Romagna. They all come from Cesari family vineyards.
Mr. Cesari is a thoroughly modern man with deep attachments to his beloved
Emilia Romagna. He is also a big fan of Sangiovese and he believes in
allowing the grape to express its distinctive personality in the wine.
To achieve this, Mr. Cesari ferments the wine in stainless steel. He also
carefully monitors the temperature during fermentation so it doesn't get too
hot and destroy the lovely fruit aromas.
The wine never touches oak either. That would only cover up the strawberry
and cherry flavors, which would be a shame!

The Cesari wine is 14USD a bottle, the Monsanto about 50-60USD...
