Personalised Poliziano Caggiole Vino Nobile di Montepulciano 2016 14.5% 750ml
Expert Review:
Huon Hookie- 95 points, Deep, rich red colour with a tinge of purple, and a classy bouquet of rich dark fruits, ironstone, freshly-shelled walnuts and generous oak, all nicely integrated. A full-bodied wine with masses of ripe, supple tannins, lovely harmony throughout the long lingering palate. It needs time to develop its bouquet fully. A young wine with big potential.
Dino Carletti entered the world of viticulture in 1961 to maintain a living contact with the place and culture of his origins. The name Poliziano pays homage to the 15th Century poet Angelo Ambrogini who hailed from Montepulciano and was knicknamed “Poliziano”. Dino’s son Federico Carletti took over in 1980 and has since grown Poliziano from 22 to 240 hectares, of which 130 hectares are dedicated to the production of sangiovese or “prugnolo gentile’ as it is locally known, planted predominately on the southern flank of Montepulciano. Today, the Poliziano wines evoke the historic tradition of the land, but at the same time speak eloquently to the modern world. Theirs is a developing narrative… they retain their original labels, but have matured and evolved over time, always with the objective of uncompromising quality and expression of terroir.
