Description

Indulge in the elegance of Salcheto's Nobile di Montepulciano, a wine that embodies the rich traditions and terroir of Tuscany. This exquisite red wine, primarily crafted from Sangiovese (locally known as Prugnolo Gentile) and a touch of Merlot, hails from the rolling hills of Montepulciano, an area famed for its viticultural heritage. Salcheto, a winery deeply committed to sustainability and biodynamic practices, ensures that every sip reflects the pure essence of the land.

The 2019 vintage offers a captivating sensory experience. The wine presents a deep ruby-red color, leading to an aromatic bouquet of ripe red fruits, particularly cherry and plum, layered with earthy undertones and a hint of spice. On the palate, it's dry and full-bodied, with a harmonious balance of acidity and tannins that provide structure and elegance. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a delightful aftertaste that evolves with each moment.

Nobile di Montepulciano is not just a wine; it's a journey through the heart of Tuscany. It's a wine that speaks of the passion and dedication of the artisans at Salcheto, and the unique characteristics of its terroir. Perfect for pairing with classic Italian cuisine, it’s an ideal companion for roasted meats, hearty pasta dishes, and aged cheeses. Whether it's a family gathering or a special occasion, this wine is designed to elevate the moment. It deserves a brief rest of 15 minutes after opening to fully reveal its qualities, best enjoyed at a temperature of around 18°C. Enjoy the artistry and depth of this extraordinary red wine and savor the genuine flavors of Tuscany with every sip.

This wine pairs exceptionally well with dishes such as roasted lamb with rosemary, braised short ribs, or a rich tomato-based pasta like pappardelle al ragu. Even an aged pecorino cheese will highlight the wine's complexity. The wine's structure and flavor will cut through richer foods and complement the earthy notes of more savory dishes. Make this a wonderful experience.
