Lunadoro ‘Pagliareto’ Vino Nobile di Montelpulciano is a smooth and mature Tuscan red from one of the region’s most celebrated varietals.

This is Montepulciano’s answer to Brunello di Montalcino, produced in the town of Montepulciano just across the valley. It is a structured wine made from a particular clone of Sangiovese called Prugnolo Gentile which is hand-harvested on the slopes near the winery.

It is fermented in temperature-controlled vats before racking into the traditional large (5000 litre) French oak barrels (known as Botti) for ageing for a minimum of 12 months. The wine is then aged for another 12 months in bottle before release. It is a faithful expression of the fine perfumed wines that Sangiovese is capable of producing in the right conditions.

Lunadoro ‘Pagliareto’ Vino Nobile di Montelpulciano shines when paired with grilled meat.

Producer’s Tasting Notes

This wine’s ruby red colour will evolve to a quite strong garnet colour over time. It has a complex and characteristic bouquet with a mature fruit aroma, notes of black pepper, and prune jam. It also boasts a floral note of violet, cigar and dark chocolate aromas. Well balanced on the palate and with sweet tannins that, combined with the correct acidity, create a long lasting finish.
