Poliziano Vino Nobile di Montepulciano 2012

Controlled and Guaranteed Denomination of Origin (DOCG) Poliziano gives the Prugnolo Gentile grape their closest attention and care. This characteristic grape of Montepulciano expresses the full potential of a region with an acknowledged gift for viticulture. The result is their Vino Nobile di Montepulciano – well structured, with longevity and perfumes that are intense but not exaggerated, faithfully expressive of deep, Tuscan roots and the ancient bond between the soil, man and culture.
85% Prugnolo Gentile – 15% Colorino, Canaiolo and Merlot planted to clay slopes at over 1,000 feet elevation is fermented and macerated for 18 – 22 days in stainless steel followed by a period of 14 – 16 months in wood. Two-thirds are refined in "barriques" and "tonneaux" of French Oak (80% second-use and 20% new), and one-third in traditional casks.
