Carpineto Riserva Vino Nobile di Montepulciano 2020

Tasting Notes

Crushed wild berries combine with violet flowers, chalk dust and hints of sweet spice as the 2020 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva evolves in the glass. This is round and supple, with perfumed inner florals and lavender-laced blackberry fruit that slowly saturates toward the close. A tinge of sour citrus mixes with salty minerals and fine tannins as the 2020 tapers off with staining length yet remarkably fresh. This is a fantastic rendition of the vintage. Drinking window: 2025-2034. (Eric Guido,vinous.com,Feb. 4, 2025)
