Tenuta Calimaia Nobile di Montepulciano 2022

Tenuta Calimaia’s Vino Nobile di Montepulciano 2022 is a Sangiovese-led red from the historic hills of Montepulciano, made by the Frescobaldi family. Its vivid fruit, supple tannins and measured oak ageing bring together an expressive Tuscan style and the structure to develop in bottle.

Tasting Notes
Intense ruby red in the glass. The nose offers cherry, sour cherry and darker black-cherry notes, with hints of sage and lavender. The palate is full and energetic, balancing raspberry and redcurrant flavours with youthful, silky tannins and lively freshness. Oak ageing lends texture, while a lingering, warmly spiced finish suggests cocoa. Its structure and freshness should allow it to evolve over the coming years.

Production
The Sangiovese comes from hillside vineyards at Monteliscione, around 300 metres above sea level. The clay-rich, low-organic-matter soils contribute concentration and tannic structure, while the site’s warmth supports ripening. Fermentation is spontaneous in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, with pump-overs and délestage during maceration. After malolactic fermentation, the wine ages for 24 months in oak casks before a final resting period. Harvesting methods are not specified.

Food & Serving
Serve with game, roasted or braised red meats, and mature cheeses. A serving temperature of around 16–18°C should show its fruit and structure well. Decant for about 30–60 minutes before serving, particularly if opening the bottle young.

Producer
Tenuta Calimaia is part of the Frescobaldi family’s Tuscan wine portfolio, bringing the family’s established winemaking tradition to the Montepulciano area. The supplied information does not provide further estate history or vintage-specific awards.
