The perfume that emanates from the glass exemplifies why Valdipiatta is a leading producer of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Their mid-weight and elegant 2019 Vino Nobile highlights the firm and minerally side of Sangiovese grown in Montepulciano. Its multifaceted profile shines because it is not heavy or overdone. Its elegant austerity and complexity remind us that excellent wine need not be ponderous.
