Description

1982 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano – Sanguinetti, Riserva (Tuscany, Italy)

A fully mature, classically styled Nobile Riserva that prizes perfume and savoury finesse. Brick-garnet with a tawny rim, it opens on dried cherry and amarena, rose petal and cedar, with sweet tobacco, leather and hints of orange peel and black tea. The palate is mid-weight and silken: lively, old-school acidity carries savoury red-cherry fruit, dried herbs and a gentle balsamic note; tannins are fine and resolved. The finish is long and tapering with cherry skin, cedar spice and dried flowers.

Producer note: Sanguinetti’s Riserva selections lean on Prugnolo Gentile (Sangiovese) from well-exposed Montepulciano hillsides, raised traditionally in large old casks to emphasise lift, poise and graceful tertiary complexity—on fine display here.

Serve: 16–18 °C. Stand upright 12–24 hours; very gentle decant for sediment just before pouring.
Food pairing: Roast pork with fennel, pappardelle al ragù, porcini risotto, aged pecorino.
