Nobile

di Montepulciano D.O.C.G. 2017


Pairing

Nobile 2017 is highly versatile, thanks to its medium body. It is an easy wine to pair with all kinds of Italian food. It feels at home with the traditional Italian dishes such as prosciutto, pecorino, pasta with any sauce and roasted meat. And why not pizza?


T his wine is made with Sangiovese grapes highlighting the balanced and harmonious traits of its habitat. The wine shows a sleek medium body, seamless tannins and a distinctive tasting profile. Great for the ‘now’ it reveals an impressive ageing potential.
In the glass it has intense garnet red reflections. On the nose, aromas of red berries, cherry and pomegranate and the unmistakable violet scent of Sangiovese. In the background a touch of vanilla and Mediterranean herbs. On the palate it is well balanced and ripe cherry and plum return, supported by a dense tannic texture. The body is warm, ethereal and enveloping with a long and persistent finish.
