Tasting Note

Asinone is a serious, "grown-up" Sangiovese that trades easy sweetness for sophisticated grit. It leads with a moody, dark profile—think blackberry and crushed violet—but stays energized by a streak of blood orange acidity. What stands out most is the texture; it has that classic dusty, mineral grip typical of top-tier Montepulciano, finishing with savory hints of tobacco and dark chocolate rather than just fruit. It’s balanced and "nervy," meaning it feels alive and punchy on the tongue rather than heavy or oak-logged.

Product Notes

Poliziano Asinone Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG wine is a true expression of the beautiful Montepulciano region in Tuscany, Italy. Made from the Sangiovese grape variety, this wine is rich and complex, with a deep ruby color and intense aromas of ripe red fruits, floral notes, and hints of spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied with velvety tannins and a long, elegant finish. The vineyards where the grapes are grown are situated at high altitudes, allowing for optimal ripening and concentration of flavors. Poliziano Asinone Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG is a perfect pairing with hearty dishes such as roasted meats or aged cheeses.

About the Winery

Poliziano

Azienda Agricola Poliziano is a distinguished family-owned winery located in Montepulciano, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy. The estate was founded in 1961 by Dino Carletti, who acquired 22 hectares of vineyard land in the region. Its name pays homage to the Renaissance poet Angelo Ambrogini, known as Il Poliziano, a native of Montepulciano, reflecting the winery’s deep connection to local culture and heritage. Management later passed to Dino’s son, Federico Carletti, who expanded both the vineyards and the winery’s reputation for producing high-quality wines. Today, the Carletti family continues to oversee operations, combining traditional practices with modern viticulture and winemaking techniques.
