Poliziano Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Asinone 2022 - an elegant, expressive and distinctive wine, worthy of both formal dinners and more serious tastings. The wine is produced from the legendary Asinone vineyard, which gives it an intense character and a clear expression of terroir.
Experts describe Asinone as a multi-layered, full-bodied interpretation of Sangiovese, characterized by an intense variety of dark berry aromas - blackcurrants, plums, cherries, as well as elegant spices, forest floor and mineral tones. The aroma is deep and rich, but at the same time retains sophistication.
In the mouth, the wine is full and textural, with bright but well-integrated tannins that provide structure and a long and elegant aftertaste. The profile is often described as "velvety" and enveloping, but elegant, and the final aftertaste is long-lasting.
The grapes were hand-picked. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. Maceration lasted for about 20-25 days.
After fermentation, the wine was aged in large French oak tanks and barrels for usually about 16-18 months. After that, the wine rests in the bottle for a few more months before being released on the market.
Serve at a temperature of 16-18 °C with grilled red meat, game, and mature cheeses.
