The 2006 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Nocio dei Boscarelli is vibrant, wonderfully alive and bursting with fruit. Dark cherries, flowers, minerals, spices and French oak are just some of the nuances that emerge in the glass. The finish is utterly impeccable in its freshness and crystalline purity. Today the 2006 Nocio dei Boscarelli is very young, but all of the elements are in place for this to develop into a splendid wine. In a word: superb. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022.
