Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is an Italian wine region situated in Tuscany. It is often confused with Montepulciano d’Abruzzo, but the 2 have very little in common apart from the fact they are both red wines.

One is a wine region, the other a grape variety.

Vino Nobile di Montepulciano can be literally translated Noble Wine from Montepulciano, which in this case is the name of a city.

It is only produced as a red wine and as a Vin Santo – a sweet style of wine. It has received the DOCG status in 1980. DOCG stands for Denominazione di Origine Contrallata e garantita. This means the wine is produced in a designated area and made and aged in a specific way using only authorised grape varieties. It basically guarantees a higher quality of wine.

An outstanding wine from Tuscany. Fragrant and refined, this elegant red offers enticing scents of woodland berry, pressed rose, violet and culinary spice. The polished focused palate delivers ripe Marasca cherry, raspberry compote, star anise and clove set against precise fine-grained tannins. Drink 2020-2030. Editors' Choice. Score - 93.

It's time for some more wine trivia. Does anyone know in what century the corkscrew was invented?

The answer is the 18th century. It is said that the first patented corkscrews were made in England in 1795. The simple twist corkscrew (with a handle on top that makes it easy to twist) was developed by Reverend Samuell Henshall to facilitate the opening of wine bottles to fulfill the sacraments of mass.

Back in stock! Pallano Pecorino is made in Abruzzo, Italy. It’s a crowd pleaser and we’re so happy to have it back in our portfolio. $12.95/btl.

Pecorino is a light-skinned wine grape used in Italy's eastern coastal regions, particularly in Marche and Abruzzo. A classic Pecorino-based wine is dry and minerally, straw-yellow in color and has an elegantly floral bouquet of acacia and jasmine, sometimes spiced with a faint hint of licorice.

The variety has a long, complicated and all-too-common history. It has been cultivated in the Marche region for hundreds of years but low yields saw it replaced by more-productive grape varieties like Trebbiano. By the mid-20th Century, Pecorino was thought extinct. In the 1980s, a local producer researching native varieties investigated a rumor of some forgotten vines in an overgrown vineyard. Cuttings were taken and propagated, and eventually grew enough grapes to make a very good wine in the early 1990s. Since then, the variety's plantings have grown exponentially, and Pecorino is grown in Marche, Abruzzo, Umbria and Tuscany.
