The 2007 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano impresses for its rich, weighty personality packed with red fruit. The roundness of the fruit carries through nicely to the finish, showing no hard edges and fabulous balance. Floral notes add brightness and lift on the close. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2017. These are among the finest wines I can remember tasting from Poliziano, one of Montepulciano's reference-point producers. Importer: Palm Bay International, Boca Raton, FL; tel. (561) 362-9642
Prugnolo Gentile 85%, Colorino, Canaiolo, Merlot 15%. Cask sample. Oenologists: Carlo Ferrini and Fabio Marchi. Deep ruby, small rim showing the beginning of orange. Appealing, sweet and even multilayered with orange peel and touch of lead pencil. Mellow, round palate, lots of sweet fruit here. Good balance too and very good length. Popular, but well made. (WS)
