Tenuta Calimaia - Frescobaldi

Tenuta Calimaia is a project that marks the return of the Frescobaldi family to Montepulciano in the name of that exploratory spirit that was also Lionardo Di Niccolò Frescobaldi's: explorer, writer and merchant, he became mayor of Montepulciano in 1390.

The vineyards, which are arranged in a crown on the Monteliscione hills, are about 300 metres above sea level and are poor in organic matter, therefore particularly suited to the cultivation of Sangiovese (traditionally called "Prugnolo Gentile" in this area).

Nobile di Montepulciano is the flagship wine of Tenuta Calimaia. The high presence of clay and the high temperatures, due to the low altitude, are in fact the perfect conditions for creating a structured and powerful Nobile wine, rich in tannins and very suitable for ageing.
