The Torcalvano Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva DOCG by Folonari is an excellence born in the heart of Tuscany, among the hills of Montepulciano, a famous area renowned for the homonymous denomination. This wine is mainly obtained from the Sangiovese Prugnolo Gentile grape variety, which gives the structure and complexity typical of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, enriched by careful aging. The time dedicated to aging in oak barrels imparts a refined elegance to the Torcalvano, characterized by intense aromas of ripe red fruits, spicy notes, and a hint of delicate vanilla. On the palate, it is full and harmonious, with velvety tannins that accompany a long taste and olfactory persistence. Perfect paired with flavorful dishes of Tuscan tradition such as roasted red meats or aged cheeses, it is a wine that celebrates the authentic expression of the Tuscan territory with class and personality.
