Great red wine. It takes its name from Montepulciano, a Renaissance city in the province of Siena which dominates the wide and verdant Valdichiana from the top of a hill. The appellation of "Nobile" seems to derive not only from its intrinsic qualities of finesse and elegance, but also from the fact that in the past the production of this wine was particularly cared for by the noble families of the city.
