Nobile di Montepulciano D.O.C.G. 2017
2017 was more than ever an hot and dry year and its wines are full-bodied but soft. The alcoholic gradations are sustained but without lack of balance and drinkability also thanks to Salcheto’s pedoclimate, capable of providing freshness to the wines with its clay soils and the strong temperature ranges.

Salcheto checks a lot of boxes. The winery is powered by renewable energy, water waste is 100% recycled, there are no added sulphites during vinification and the entire production is certified organic and packaged in light weight bottles. Above all, the Nobile tastes delicious. It is clean and immediately appealing offering complex cedar, earth, tea and balsamic nuances atop forest fruit. Full-bodied and full of character, it is rich yet fresh and seductively textured with polished tannins. A great success for this challenging vintage. Drinking Window 2020 – 2030
