Marchesi Antinori La Braccesca Vino Nobile di Montepulciano 2018

''A Vino Nobile di Montepulciano that shows tension and focus with blackberry, blueberry and hazelnut undertones. It’s full-bodied with lovely, fine and chewy tannins and a delicious finish. Drink now or hold." 92 Points, James Suckling (Previous Vintage Review)

''The Vino Nobile di Montepulciano offers a classic rendition. The bouquet shows wild berry aromas with rose, tilled earth and some toasted almond. This spreads evenly over the palate with mid-weight intensity, good freshness and plenty of fruit purity to power a long and silky finish.'' 91 Points, Wine Advocate Magazine (Previous Vintage Review)

A vivid ruby red in colour, the wine shows a fresh nose of violets, red currants, and blackberries, well fused with light notes of cinnamon. The palate is both sweetly fruited and mineral in character, and the notes of berry fruit first felt on the nose blend with a light spiciness of flavour. The wine is long and persistent on the finish and aftertaste.
