2020 Ventisei Vino Nobile de Montepulciano, Tuscany, Italy

ABOUT THE WINE

The 2020 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano from Ventisei is crafted primarily from Sangiovese, locally known as Prugnolo Gentile, the historic grape variety at the heart of this celebrated Tuscan appellation. Produced in the rolling hills surrounding the medieval town of Montepulciano, the wine reflects a balance of richness, freshness, and Old World complexity.

The 2020 vintage delivers expressive aromas of black cherry, dried rose, and spice alongside earthy undertones characteristic of the region’s clay and sandstone soils. Aging in oak enhances the wine with subtle notes of vanilla, cedar, and tobacco while preserving the purity of the fruit. On the palate, bright acidity and finely woven tannins create structure and elegance, allowing layers of red fruit, savory herbs, and mineral nuance to unfold gradually.

Traditional winemaking methods combined with careful vineyard management allow the wine to express both varietal authenticity and regional character. Elegant yet approachable, this Vino Nobile pairs beautifully with braised meats, wild mushroom pasta, aged cheeses, or classic Tuscan cuisine.
