The Sangiovese grapes that don’t make it into the Vino Nobile end up in this peony- and violet-scented wine, all those flowers leavened with a slug of Merlot to keep the tannins gentle.
Rosso di Montepulciano DOC
Denominazione di Origine Controllata
Rosso di Montepulciano has been a D.O.C. since 1989 and can be produced by simply declassifying the grapes registered for Vino Nobile. At Poliziano, vice versa, a uncompromising choice was made: we selected the most suitable vineyards to obtain a young, fruity, and full-bodied wine.
