Descrizione

The Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG produced by Melini is a celebration of Tuscan winemaking tradition and elegance. This prestigious red wine embodies the passion and experience of Melini, one of Italy's historic wineries, in creating wines that faithfully reflect the terroir and rich winemaking heritage of the Montepulciano region.

Characterized by a blend dominated by the Sangiovese vine, locally known as Prugnolo Gentile, Melini's Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG best expresses the distinctive qualities of this vine, enriched by small quantities of other local varieties which contribute to creating an aromatic and taste profile complex and harmonious.

Visually, the wine has a deep ruby red color, with garnet nuances that intensify with aging. On the nose, it offers a rich and inviting bouquet, with notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and plums, accents of spices, vanilla and tobacco, the result of careful aging in wood which enriches the aromatic profile without overpowering it.

In the mouth it is structured and balanced, with silky tannins and a lively freshness that gives dynamism to the sip. The red fruit flavors blend with balsamic and spicy notes, leading to a long and persistent finish, which leaves a pleasant sensation of elegance and complexity.

Perfect in combination with robust dishes of Tuscan cuisine, such as roast meat, game and mature cheeses, this Vino Nobile is also an excellent companion for tasting evenings, where it can be appreciated for its depth and its ability to evolve and reveal new nuances in the glass.

Winery history

The Melini family's roots in winemaking date back to the 18th century; the winery is recorded in historical sources as active since 1705. Over the course of the 20th century ownership passed through several hands before becoming part of Gruppo Italiano Vini, which still oversees its brand and production.

Production philosophy

The winery combines Chianti tradition with modern winemaking techniques, focusing on vineyard selection and the expression of Sangiovese, either as a single-varietal or in blends with international grape varieties, to produce terroir-driven, ready-to-drink wines.

Terroir and vineyards

The facilities are located in the hills of the Chianti Classico around Gaggiano. Among the estates and vineyards cited in the sources are La Selvanella, Granaio and Terrarossa; the vineyards are situated on hillsides, with exposures and elevations typical of the Chianti Classico area.
