Brief Description

Tasting Notes

With violets and sweet peas on the nose, the palette is medium-full bodied with typical cherry and plum flavours backed up by notes of chocolate and vanilla.

About

As well as being a medieval town in Siena in the south of Tuscany, Montepuliano is the one of the most widely grown grape indigenous varieties in this region, along with Sangiovese. Here the hot climate is perfect for the fruit, which tends to ripen quite late in the season. With a fair amount of phenols and tannins, it shares some of the antioxidant properties of Bordeaux wines and can have good ageing potential as well as being excellent with food.

Ideal with...

This is a good match for meatballs, herby sausages, fresh pasta with tomato-based sauces and pizza.
