Winemaker Notes

This exceptional redwine derives itsname fromtheRenaissance townofMontepulciano, locatedintheprovinceofSiena. The term "Nobile" seems to originate from the fact that in the past its production was reserved exclusively for the aristocratic, noble familiesofthetown. Grapes: Sangiovese (PrugnoloGentile), Canaioloand other authorized grape varietals. Vinification: maceration of the skins with the must for 10-15 days at 25-30°C (77-86°F). The frequent pump-overs are accomplished using special pumps designed to move solid parts (skins and seeds) very gently. Aging: aged two years in large 5,500 literSlavonian oval oak barrels, with a small part in French oak barrels. Finishing: after bottling the wine is aged in our temperature controlled cellars for 6/8 months before release. Color: brilliant ruby red with a tendency to garnet. Bouquet: ethereal, extraordinarily elegant with hints of violet and wood. Flavor: dry, harmonic, fruity and velvety, with an elegant texture and long finish. Serving temperature: 20°C, 68°F, in a decanter.
