La Braccesca Nobile di Montepulciano Santa Pia 2021

La Braccesca Nobile di Montepulciano Santa Pia 2021 is a refined Tuscan red that captures the elegance and depth of Sangiovese Grosso from one of Italy’s most historic appellations. Produced by La Braccesca, part of the Antinori family portfolio, it combines classic Montepulciano character with a polished, modern touch.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright ruby-red color with lively intensity. The nose is expressive and layered, offering red cherry, wild berries, violets, and a subtle undercurrent of spice, earth, and dried herbs. On the palate, the wine is fresh and structured, with fine tannins, vibrant acidity, and a graceful balance between fruit and savory nuance. The finish is persistent and elegant, with the structure to evolve further over the next several years. Well-cellared bottles should continue to gain complexity with age.

Production
Santa Pia comes from vineyards in the Montepulciano area of Tuscany, where Sangiovese Grosso benefits from clay-rich soils, warm days, and cooling influences that help preserve freshness and aromatic lift. The grapes are carefully harvested to ensure optimal ripeness, then vinified in a way that emphasizes purity of fruit, balance, and the traditional character of Nobile di Montepulciano.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with Tuscan-inspired dishes such as pappardelle with ragù, roasted duck, grilled lamb, and aged pecorino. Serve at 16–18°C for the best expression of its aromas and structure. Decanting for 30–60 minutes is recommended, especially if enjoying it young.
