WINE DESCRIPTION
La Braccesca Maggiarino Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is produced by Marchesi Antinori in the historic Tuscan denomination of Nobile di Montepulciano.
The finest Sangiovese grapes selected from choice vineyards on the Maggiarino estate underwent specific vinification processes aimed at preserving aromas and enhancing its structure. The skins were left in contact with the wine for 20 days in stainless steel vats and then transferred into tonneaux where malolactic fermentation occurred and was left to age for a period of about 12 months. The wine was bottled and left to age for two additional years before being released in the market.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
La Braccesca Maggiarino Vino Nobile di Montepulciano offers an enticing bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and red plums, accompanied by delicate floral notes.These aromas are further enhanced by hints of spice, such as tea and tomato concentrate, adding complexity to the wine.
The palate of this wine is rich and full-bodied, with grippy tannins that provide structure and frame the red fruit profile. The flavors of red fruits persist on the palate, complemented by subtle earthy undertones. The wine displays a well-balanced acidity, contributing to its overall freshness and structure.
