Description

Michele Manelli and his two partners have taken the Azienda Salcheto to the top of the denomination of origin. He makes vino nobile as it should be in our opinion, with the elegant and fresh expression of the prugnolo grape without the dominance of oak.

The prugnolo gentile is the local variant of the famous Tuscan sangiovese and the specialty of the village of Montepulciano. The vineyards of the azienda - 20 hectares in total - are fully organically farmed and are among the highest grape plantations in the area. The yield is low (only one bottle per vine) and the yield is therefore of high quality.

The mild extraction of tannins and dyes during fermentation and maturation in fine oak do justice to the top quality of the grapes. Result: a wine with elegance, fine tannins and complex and beautiful aromas; a great wine that received the highest rating in the wine guide Gambero Rosso with only two other producers. Tuscany at its best!
