Duca di Cardino Vino Nobile di Montepulciano 2020

Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is one of Tuscany’s finest (and priciest) reds. For a great-value alternative, savvy wine fans turn to Rosso di Montepulciano. The ‘baby brothers’ of Vino Nobile, these wines offer similarly elegant flavors and more richness than neighboring Chianti. And this fabulous example is one of the finest we’ve tasted…

Duca di Cardino hails from the renowned Barbanera family, the talented crew behind many of our best-selling Tuscan reds. Crafted with premium Sangiovese and other grapes grown in the family’s estate vineyards, it pays tribute to their legendary ancestor, Orazio Barbanera. After defeating the Florentines in a skirmish in an artichoke field, Orazio earned the honorary title ‘Duca di Cardino’ (‘Duke of Artichokes’). The wine has a victorious history, too—previous releases have won 90+ point scores from leading critics and wine guides.

Made to be enjoyed in its fruit-packed youth, this acclaimed Rosso di Montepulciano bursts with vibrant cherry flavors and is ready to drink now. Secure your share while our limited cases last.
