Description

Nobile di Montepulciano DOC 1966 Cav Marte Cantucci is a red wine from Montepulciano, Tuscany, Italy, produced by Cav Marte Cantucci, a historic estate dedicated to traditional Tuscan winemaking. The 1966 vintage exemplifies the classic style of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano: elegant, structured, and refined, with remarkable aging potential that allows the wine to develop complex tertiary aromas over decades.

Tasting Notes:
The wine displays a garnet-red color with brick-orange highlights along the rim, indicative of a well-aged Tuscan red. The bouquet is sophisticated and layered, revealing dried red cherries, plums, and subtle floral notes such as violets, complemented by tertiary aromas of leather, tobacco, cedar, and gentle earthy undertones. With gentle aeration, hints of balsamic, forest floor, and soft spice emerge, enhancing depth and complexity.

On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied with finely integrated tannins and balanced acidity. The finish is elegant and persistent, featuring dried red fruit, delicate spice, and refined earthy notes that reflect the wine’s careful evolution and the harmony of Montepulciano’s terroir.

Serving & Food Pairing:
Serve at around 16–18°C, decanting carefully to remove any sediment.

Pairs beautifully with traditional Tuscan dishes: roasted or braised meats, game, mushroom-based pasta and risottos, and medium- to aged cheeses. Its mature complexity also allows it to be enjoyed on its own as a contemplative tasting experience.

Producer:
Cav Marte Cantucci is known for crafting Nobile di Montepulciano wines that balance elegance, structure, and long-term aging potential. The 1966 vintage showcases the estate’s mastery of traditional Tuscan winemaking and the enduring character of Montepulciano’s signature grape.
