Winemaker Notes
Intense and persistent nose with clear hints of blackberry and blueberry in prevalence; densearomas of jam and notes of Mediterranean spices emerge in progression. The entry into themouth is soft and harmonious; the final ample and enveloping, supported by a pleasantacidity. Goes well with roast and braised red meats, game and aged cheese.

From the hills and valleys surrounding the medieval village of Montalcino, come the distinguished and age-worthy wines based on Brunello (Sangiovese). Earning global acclaim since the 1970s, the Tuscan Blends are composed solely of international grape varieties or a mix of international and Sangiovese. The wine called Vine Nobile di Montepulciano, composed of Prognolo Gentile (Sangiovese) and is recognized both for finesse and power.
