Tasting Notes
The ethereal bouquet shows elegant notes of violet and toasted oak nuances. Enticing aromas of sweet cherry, leather, spice and underbrush stay focused on the palate as this harmonious red unfolds. Bold fruit flavors envelope the palate with a velvety, elegant texture and long finish, it is dry and full in style.

Vinification and Aging
Vinification: maceration of the skins with the must for 10-15 days at 25-30°C (77-86°F). The frequent pump-overs are accomplished using special pumps designed to move solid parts (skins and seeds) very gently.
Aging: aged two years in large 5,500 liter Slavonian oval oak barrels, with a small part in French oak barrels

Terroir
This exceptional red wine derives its name from the Renaissance town of Montepulciano, located in the province of Siena. The term "Nobile" seems to originate from the fact that in the past its production was reserved exclusively for the aristocratic, noble families of the town.
