NOBILE DI MONTEPULCIANO LA BRACCESCA 2020
Born from the union of the historic Sangiovese variety with a small amount of Merlot, in the best sub-areas of the denomination, for a Vino Nobile with a strong, balanced and elegant character.
The nose is a symphony of berries, roses and black pepper on a woody background. On the palate it is soft and elegant, balanced and pleasantly savory.
