Farina Pierino Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Schiantolo

This is actually a Rosso di Montepulciano not a Vino Nobile. At 15 euros in one of the many wine shops in the town it represents excellent value for money. The quality is very high, rich and tasty but not in anyway heavy, it is a perfect foil for the local cuisine. Think of it as a Bourgogne rouge in the burgundy hierarchy. Best drunk within a few years of the vintage.
