Why we like Umbria Montepulciano Igt “Torre Maggiore” 2010 - Le Poggette: it is obtained from grapes harvested at the end of October. The wine ages in barrels more than 18 months before being bottled. Thus, it is refined in bottles and finally sold. It is a wine of remarkable elegance, it is savoury and it expresses the extraordinary vine it comes from.
