Lots of nice fresh fruit with strawberry and lemon aromas and flavors. Medium to light body. Clean finish. Drink now.

The 2014 Fattoria del Cerro Manero—a Rosso di Toscana blend of Sangiovese and Merlot—is one of the world's greatest red wine values. The wine's bright red fruits, wild sage-like herbs and crisp acidity make it a great wine for food lovers. Drinks superbly now. (Tasted: August 11, 2016, San Francisco, CA)

Fattoria del Cerro, with its 94 hectares of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano vineyards recorded in the register, is the largest private estate producing Vino Nobile. The spaciousness and the different exposition of the vineyards allow selecting the best grapes to make high quality wines.
Prugnolo Gentile, the grape behind Nobile di Montepulciano, is the clone of Sangiovese, typical of this area, and which, over the course of the centuries, has adapted itself to local growing conditions. Vino Nobile is produced in three different versions: the regular wine Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG, the Riserva Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva DOCG, and the single vineyard selection Vino Nobile di Montepulciano “Antica Chiusina” DOCG. Fattoria del Cerro produces also Chianti Colli Senesi DOCG, Rosso di Montepulciano DOC, Manero Rosso di Toscana IGT, Manero Bianco di Toscana,Vinsanto di Montepulciano DOC.
