Tenuta Vallocaia Vino Nobile Di Montepulciano I Quadri 2021

Description

Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG, 14.5% ABV, produced by Bindella, 100% Sangiovese. 0.75-liter bottle, 2021 vintage. A wine that expresses the elegance of the Tuscan terroir, aged for 18-20 months in French oak tonneaux and 12 months in bottle. The grapes come from clay-loam soils with a northeastern exposure. Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature between 25 and 28°C, with maceration on the skins for approximately 20 days. A triumph of fruit, with black cherries and wild berries, sweet spices, dried leaves, and a hint of minerality. Refined on the palate, with a good fresh-savory thrust and virile tannins. A long, persistent finish.

The place-name Vallocaia, of ancient wine-growing virtue, was by then abandoned when, at the beginning of the 1980s, the Swiss merchant Rudi Bindella laid the foundations for an unparalleled revival. On the other hand, Montepulciano is one of the most beautiful places in Tuscany and its soils of Pliocene origin (rich in sand, clay and marine elements), make the difference in terms of elegance in the glass and Vallocaia, falling in the cru Argiano, is a small paradise where nature seems to express itself perfectly on its own. Giovanni Capuano has been entrusted with the task in the cellar of bringing out without filters the finesse of the wines produced in this lieu dit, a difficult art that seems to him to be particularly successful from the tastings.
