Elaboration

An exceptional Italian red wine that takes its name from the Renaissance town of Montepulciano, located in the province of Siena. The term "Noble" seems to have its origins in the fact that in the past its production was reserved exclusively for noble families and aristocrats in the city.It is a mixture of Sangiovese (Prugnolo Gentile) and Canaiolo grapes. The wine was aged for two years in large oval Slavonian oak barrels, with a small part of the time spent in French oak barrels.

Taster´s notes

Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva 2017 has a bright ruby color, with a tendency towards garnet once aged. On the nose, it is amazingly elegant, with hints of violet and wood. On the palate, it has dry, harmonious, fruity and velvety notes, with an elegant texture and a long finish. We recommend pairing wine with outdated cheeses, red meat and game. We suggest a serving temperature of 18ºC and decanting the wine 1 hour before serving.

The Winery

Carpineto was founded in 1967 in the little enclave of Dudda, just outside of Greve in Chianti by Giancarlo Sacchet and Antonio Mario Zaccheo with the purpose of making great Sangiovese in the Tuscan Classic appellations as it had never been done before. Today the Sacchet and Zaccheo families work together managing 5 estates, 500 hectares of land, all sustainably farmed, and wines are produced in carbon-neutral wineries, are vegan friendly and are made by the chief winemaker, Caterina Sacchet and her capable staff.
