Boscarelli's Il Nocio vineyard is located on a little plateau just a short distance up the road from the estate's bijou winery. The 2016 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Il Nocio displays a luminous, mid-weight appearance followed by bright and sharp berry aromas. Wild cherry and blueberry give the wine a lifted character, and there is mild spice, tilled earth and leather at the back. Most of all, this wine offers the precise linearity and sharpness (with extra acidity) that this vintage is known for.

Black cherry and plum flavors are shaded by iron, earth and soy accents in this compact red. The core of ripe fruit stands up nicely to the dense structure. Persistent and fresh on the finish. Best from 2021 through 2030. 800 cases made, 55 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Select to Add
