The name was adopted from the Renaissance town of Montepulciano, where this wine was originally produced. The name “nobile†was given due to the fact that in the past its production was reserved exclusively for the aristocratic, noble families of the area. Tasting Notes: An ethereal bouquet of violets, cherries, and wood fills the nose. On the palate, it is dry, harmonious, and fruity with a velvety, elegant texture and a long finish. Traditionally, this wine is paired with wild boar, but can accompany any game meat. Also great with aged cheeses. This is a cellar-worthy wine.
