$41.89
Despite its name, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano often whispers rather than shouts, and this 2021 Rocca delle Macie 1787 is a masterclass in restraint. It offers a profound sense of place, its Sangiovese vines deeply rooted in Tuscan soil, yielding a wine of elegant structure and savoury depth. You'll find dark fruit and a whisper of violet, all supported by a minerality that makes it a captivating companion to substantial fare.
