Poliziano is located on the slopes below Montepulciano near the village of Gracciano. Federico has created some of the finest wines in this top quality wine-producing area. Federico Carletti chose the name "Poliziano" because he loved the work of a renowned native poet, Angelo Ambrogini. Bright black cherry, plum, earth, vanilla and toasty oak flavors are the hallmarks of this well-crafted red. 

JS92: Lots of plums on the nose with some flowers. Black cherries and dried flowers, too. Full-bodied with chewy, juicy tannins and a flavorful finish. Deep and rich, yet there’s a fresh form to it. Give it a year or two to soften. Better after 2022.

JD91: A step up in price, the 2017 Vino Nobile Di Montepulciano checks in as 85% Sangiovese and the rest Colorino, Canaiolo, and Merlot. Aged all in barrel, this deeper ruby-colored red offers lots of spicy, toasty oak as well as notes of spiced berry fruit, a touch of licorice, medium body, and a silky, seamless texture. Drink this elegant, classy, balanced 2017 any time over the coming 5-8 years.
