The 2001 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is one of the best regular bottlings the house has yet made, dark in color and with a penetrating nose of red fruit, herbs, and caramel. The long and sustained palate of red berry fruit, rhubarb, and licorice is ample, vigorous, and with very pleasurable tannins on the close. Drink: 2005-2012.
