VECCHIE VITI DEL SALCO Nobile di Montepulciano D.O.C.G. 2015
Made from the oldest vines of the Salco vineyard, the most mature andimportant of our estate. A field of 2ha, with vines of 29-31 years of age,
entirely cultivated with a clone of Sangiovese Prugnolo Gentile selected at the winery that at each harvest easily reaches a slight overripe. After 2 years
of wood it ages up to 2 years in bottle before being put on the market. This wine, son of the historical experience made over the Salco vineyard, is also
dedicated to the Alliance Vinum project, the union of six great Vino Nobile producers, aimed at the growth of individuals and of the whole territory.
2015 proved to be a year with a balanced climate for the territory, characterized by an extremely hot month of August which has greatly calmed the acidities: the wines that
came out are meaty and decidedly soft, basically “to eat and to drink”. Vecchie Viti del Salco, which was vinified in 70hl wood tanks with only indigenous yeasts and without
added sulphites, and has aged, in equal parts in 300-liter tonneaux and in large botte, does not lack of either balance and elegance.
