Tasting notes
The Vino Nobile di Montepulciano has a brilliant ruby red colour, with garnet tinges as it ages. It has an intense bouquet with aromas of ripe cherries, plums and violets. It represents the perfect combination of structure and elegance: its full body and velvety tannins are balanced by its fine acidity. The wine is decidedly persistent and harmonious.
Grape varieties - Mainly Sangiovese, with small quantities of complementary varieties.
Soil characteristics - Predominantly clay with the presence of sand (tuff) which gives the wine its intense color, full body and capacity for aging.
