Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG Cantine Dei, Tasting notes:
It has a brilliant ruby colour, with garnet hues as it ages. Intense bouquet with aromas of ripe cherries, plums and violets. It represents the perfect combination of structure and elegance: its full body and velvety tannins are balanced by its fine acidity. The wine is decidedly persistent and harmonious.
Cantine Dei
Cantine Dei is known as one of the best wine producers of Montepulciano. Every year their wines are awarded and recognized by critics as excellent.
At the Dei estate, arts merges with wine. Their cellar is the perfect example of how architecture and winemaking are working together for a stunning result.
Their wine are all based on the local Sangiovese production and their Nobile wine are among the best of the region.
Nobile di Montepulciano
Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Cantine Dei is one of the most prestigious Italian wines, the first to be awarded the DOCG and it is the perfect example of the expression that Sangiovese takes in the Montepulciano lands. It is mostly Sangiovese, with small quantities of complementary varieties (5%). Grows in a predominantly clayey soil with the presence of sand (tuff), which gives it an intense colour, a full body and the ability to age. The vinification technique consists of soft pressing, fermentation in stainless steel at a controlled temperature of 26-28°C and maceration on the skins for 15-20 days with pumping over. Finally, it is aged for a minimum of 24 months, of which at least 18 months in 50 hl Slavonian oak casks.
Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG Madonna della Querce Cantine Dei, Tasting notes:
Intense and deep ruby red colour. It has a broad and fascinating nose. Varietal notes dominate, with ripe red fruit and jams, all accompanied by the spicy scent of wood, which remains in the background. The olfactory-gustatory link is perfect. In the mouth it is ethereal, long and mineral, the tannins are well made, dense and elegant. A deeper analysis reveals a medium alcohol content and excellent levels of acidity and extractive substances. A wine that stands out above all for its elegance and refinement.

Nobile di Montepulciano
Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG Madonna della Querce Cantine Dei is the best Cantine Dei Wine. Caterina Dei, the owner, considers this wine to be the jewel in the crown of the entire production, which is why he has decided to dedicate it to his father Glauco: at the bottom of the label, we read “to my father”, a fitting tribute to the figure who was the reference point for the growth of the company. In 2015 the vineyard from which the grapes come from reached maturity and consequently today all the requirements are in place to obtain a great wine with long aging potential.
Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG Riserva Bossona Cantine Dei, Tasting notes:
Complex, elegant and balanced structure. Ruby-coloured tending to garnet, with intense and elegant aromas, with hints of violets, underbrush and spices, it has a character of finesse, with firm, velvety tannins and a long, deep finish.
Vino Nobile Riserva Bossona is one of the highest expressions of the Montepulciano DOCG. Its grapes come from the vineyard of the same name, one of the most suitable, planted by Caterina’s grandfather, Alibrando, in 1961. The wine became a Riserva in 1999, with long ageing in wood and in the bottle. Without a doubt it is one of the estate’s flagship wines, a symbol of the elegance and grace of Sangiovese in Montepulciano. The yields are very low (about 40 quintals per hectare) and the wine is bottled with the label Bossona Riserva only in the best vintages. The soil is of Pliocene origin, dating back 2.5-5 million years. It is rich in tuff, skeleton and fossils, which are not only strongly draining, but also give the wine structure and minerality. The Bossona vineyard is one of the sunniest areas of Montepulciano and its favourable exposure allows for excellent ripening of the grapes. The complex composition of the soil is perfect for Sangiovese, and the constant ventilation ensures that the grapes are healthy.

Giuseppe and Silvana Bianchini decided to dedicate themselves to grape growing and wine production, with the aim of creating high quality wines that were an authentic expression of the Tuscan terroir.Their focus on quality and environmental sustainability led them to adopt organic farming methods and to limit the use of chemicals. Thanks to this approach, Villa Sant'Anna was one of the first wineries in Tuscany to obtain organic certification.

Rosa Cantine Dei, Tasting notes:
Is characterised by a soft pink colour, its aroma is rich in fresh aromas, especially flowers and fruit, red and soft. Moderate acidity, fresh fruit aromas such as cherry, strawberry, raspberry and orange blossom.
the Rosa Cantine Dei IGT comes from the “Martiena” vineyard, which is located in front of the winery and whose grapes are therefore the first to reach the reception area during the harvest. The grapes destined for Rosa are harvested a couple of weeks earlier than those for Rosso di Montepulciano: when the veraison is complete and the acidity level is still high with good sugar content. The soil, rich in sand and tuff, enhances the wine’s fruity taste, its pleasantness and freshness. After a soft pressing, the must is placed in a refrigerated tank at 6-8°C for 24-36 hours. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at a controlled temperature of 14°C for 7-10 days.

Podere Pereto:
The company was founded in 1991, in Serre di Rapolano, in the heart of Tuscany.
The aim is to practise organic farming, creating a microcosm that is sustainable both ecologically and economically and socially. From the very beginning, in fact, local and ancient varieties are cultivated, excluding the use of fertilisers, chemical and synthetic pesticides, toscanello bean and zolfino bean, and cereals such as Verna, Gentil Rosso, Frassineto and Cappelli durum wheat, are naturally adapted to the local soil and climate, Furthermore, it allows the farm to adopt a three-year rotation system and prevent over-exploitation of the land, thus ensuring respect for the balance of the land
