Poliziano Rosso Di Montepulciano

”rosso di montepulciano achieved the doc classification in 1989. It can be produced by simply downgrading grapes that are classified as vino nobile. In our winery however we decided not compromises. We selected a number of vineyards with particular characteristics in order to obtain a wine that is young fruity fullbodied but not hard; a selection that has allowed us to classify our rosso di montepulciano as the second wine of the poliziano winery vinification: fermentation is in stainless-steel vats at a controlled temperature with milling that includes repassing the must over the grape dregs. Fermentation and maceration take 10-12 days. Refinement: for 8 months. 20% of the product is refined in second- use barriques of french oak and the remainder is refined in vats.”- poliziano
