Vigna Asinone Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Sangiovese

Lots of layers! Tobacco, blueberry, soft oak

Good stuff but in my opinion the ripeness and oak treatment make the Sangiovese character look like something else. Appellation Tellus Controllée.

Deep ruby color. Seductive aromas and flavors of dried herbs, dried cherries, sour cherries, rhubarb, and an intriguing "saltiness". Mouthfeel is very round, with developing tannins. Vanilla and toast round out the long finish.

Аромат интенсивный, достаточно яркий и сочный, ягоды, фрукты с хорошо интегрированным дубом. Вторичные тона далеко на втором плане со специями и легкой кожей. Во вкусе очень сочное в атаке, танин средний и совсем не агрессивный, длительное послевкусии со специями и перчинкой. Сейчас в отличной кондиции.

Asinone = big donkey 🐴. Spices on the nose with soft tannins and strawberry flavors. Really well rounded.

Very nice vino noble from Montepulciano. Age for five to ten years. But drinkable now. Smoother than some of the others we've tried even bough young. Tasted at Poliziano winery after the tour.
