Antonio Sanguineti, Rosso di Montepulciano D.O.C.
(ROH-so dee mohn-tay-pool-CHAH-no)

 

Tasting Notes: This classic “little brother” of Vino Nobile is the product of a beautiful collaboration between Tuscan wine guru Antonio Sanguineti and the famous Lombardo estate of Montepulciano. With Lombardo’s storied expertise and Sanguineti’s skilled palate, this Rosso di Montepulciano is full of enticing dried cherry, but remains intriguingly moodier than many other styles and clones of Sangiovese.
