The estate’s 2003 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Vigneto Antica Chiusina, the single-vineyard selection, is a blend of 90% Prugnolo Gentile and 10% Colorino aged 18 months in French oak barrels. This beautifully plump Vino Nobile captures the warmth of the vintage in its expressive, opulent personality and generous sweet, dark fruit. Despite its ripeness, it also offers superb freshness as well as balance which will allow it to drink well over the next decade. It is a terrific effort from Fattoria del Cerro. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2018.
