Winemaker: A powerhouse wine, Salcheto's Vino Nobile di Montepulciano hits the palate with an exotic array of smoke, incense, scorched earth, iron and black fruit. This is far from an easygoing wine, so plan on cellaring the Vino Nobile for another few years. Ferrous, savory notes add complexity to the intense finish.

Plum and cherry flavors in this concentrated red. Leather, iron and sanguine notes chime in as this cruises to a lingering aftertaste. Shows terrific intensity and balance. Best from 2022 through 2040. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 94 pts WS plus a *Smart Buy*
