A blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% Mammolo, this offers classic varietal scents of underbrush, wild berry, blue flower and a whiff of leather. The firm palate delivers dried black cherry, raspberry, white pepper and anise framed in tightly packed but mature tannins. Drink through 2020.

Fattoria del Cerro, with its 94 hectares of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano vineyards recorded in the register, is the largest private estate producing Vino Nobile. The spaciousness and the different exposition of the vineyards allow selecting the best grapes to make high quality wines.
Prugnolo Gentile, the grape behind Nobile di Montepulciano, is the clone of Sangiovese, typical of this area, and which, over the course of the centuries, has adapted itself to local growing conditions. Vino Nobile is produced in three different versions: the regular wine Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG, the Riserva Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva DOCG, and the single vineyard selection Vino Nobile di Montepulciano “Antica Chiusina” DOCG. Fattoria del Cerro produces also Chianti Colli Senesi DOCG, Rosso di Montepulciano DOC, Manero Rosso di Toscana IGT, Manero Bianco di Toscana,Vinsanto di Montepulciano DOC.
