The 2017 was more than ever a 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.

2015 is undoubtedly one of the most impressive vintage of its decade. It was marked by a strong thermal stress in August, which has particularly influenced acidity levels. The result is a wine “eat and drink all in one”, fleshy and soft, to be enjoyed perhaps in a shorter time horizon. Salco has been vinified with indigenous yeasts only and without adding sulphites, showing balance and elegance also thanks to Salcheto pedoclimatic, with soils rich of clay and significant temperature ranges.

2015 proved to be a year with a balanced climate for the territory, characterized by an extremely hot month of August which has greatly calmed the acidities: the wines that came out are meaty and decidedly soft, basically “to eat and to drink”.

The 2013 is a vintage that surprised us all in the end, for better or for worse. The climatic discontinuity put pressure over the fruit ripening, up to a nearly perfect September which gave us well concentrated and balanced fruits, but also offered thin skins that could hardly stand the first autumn rains. In this scenario, finally a bit ‘”classic” for the decade, our focus was once again put on careful selection in the vineyard and over the triage tables. Its wines are among the most intense of all time, thus renewed thanks also to the always fascinating work of the indigenous yeasts

The 2019 vintage of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is fresh and intense, due to a pretty classic climate, able though to push the fruit until a good maturation.

2016 was a kind of “old school” vintage: a regular season, slightly late maturation and a season finale with some rain. The result is a more elegant Sangiovese than ever which enhances its earthy and spicy tones.
