Poderi Sanguineto I e II Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Sangiovese 2016

The Vino Nobile from Poderi Sanguineto is one of the last traditional wines made in Montepulciano that perfectly captures the charm Sangiovese is capable of.andnbsp; Dora Forsoni learned how to make wine from her Father staring in 1968 and hasn't changed her methods since then.andnbsp; Her vineyards are planted not only to Sangiovese, which has come into vogue for Vino Nobile in emulation of the more famous wines of Brunello, but also include 20-30% Mammolo and Canaiolo. This combination lends the wine extra fragrance and helps to soften the more angular nature of Sangiovese.andnbsp; Dora has always farmed organically, fermented her wines in concrete with the Vino Nobile spending two years in large casks before bottling. This a charming wine full of bright red fruit and floral tones that has very fine tannins and buoyant acidity that lift its juicy texture.andnbsp; A joy to drink now, it will age gracefully over the next decade.
