Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG

Prugnolo Gentile on Tuscan clay soils – this is the basis of the Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG from La Braccesca, one of the most famous estates of the Antinori group in Tuscany.

La Braccesca has been cultivating its vineyards around Montepulciano and Cortona under the umbrella of the Antinori family since the 1990s. The wines follow the classic style of Vino Nobile: aging in large wooden casks, clear expression of origin, and no modern excess of oak aromas.

In the glass, it displays a medium-deep ruby ​​color. The nose offers aromas of sour cherry, blackberry, and a hint of dried violet, along with a subtle spice of cedar. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with firm but not harsh tannins and lively acidity – typical of Prugnolo Gentile. The finish is long, with a light balsamic note.
