2021 Poliziano Vino Nobile Di Montepulciano Caros Wines NZ

A gorgeous Sangiovese from the Tuscan town of Montepulciano (not to be confused with wines from the Montepulciano grape used in Abruzzo). The previous vintage of this wine made it to Wine Spectator’s Top 100 Wines of 2019 list (#54). Predominantly made from the local Sangiovese strain called Prugnolo Gentile, this superb red has a fleshiness and almost opulent expression that is simply delicious now, but has the structure to age gracefully.
