Retailer product description

Reproduced from a tracked retailer’s product feed for identification; it is not BottlePicker editorial content.

Just a mile away from the city of Montepulciano, near the border between Tuscany and neighbouring Umbria, La Braccesca, an Antinori property since 1990, is situated in two very close, but entirely different, zones: the classic and prestigious area of Vino Nobile, and Cortona, which has made a name for itself for Syrah. Santa Pia is produced from a 15-hectare (37 acres) vineyard located on the ridges just below the town of Montepulciano. This particular area has sandy loamy soils rich in rocky deposits known as “scheletro” that allow Antinori to create an elegant yet traditional expression of the Sangiovese grape that reflects the characteristics of this historic winemaking area.
