The estate’s Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is made primarily from Prugnolo Gentile (the local clone of Sangiovese), with small amounts of Canaiolo and Mammolo. The 2020 vintage was aged in large oak casks, highlighting fruit purity and the terroir of Montepulciano’s rolling hillsides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhy get this wine?\n\u003cbr\u003eVino Nobile often sits in the shadow of Chianti Classico and Brunello, but Dei has consistently shown why this appellation is “the third great Sangiovese.” The wines are elegant, structured, and long-lived, and the 2020 vintage is an excellent, balanced year in Tuscany. Dei’s reputation for quality makes this one of the most reliable and collectible examples of Vino Nobile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat does this wine taste like?\n\u003cbr\u003eMedium to full-bodied, with vibrant red cherry and plum fruit, violet, and dried herbs, supported by notes of spice, cedar, and earthy minerality. Fine tannins and lively acidity provide lift and aging potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen should you drink this wine?\n\u003cbr\u003eApproachable with a decant, but best 2025–2032. Pair with classic Tuscan dishes like pappardelle al ragù, roasted meats, or aged pecorino.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Skurnik [MSK]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44886607069241,"sku":"NYC-MSK-`IT-DEI-10-20`-091825-2","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/Dei-Vino-Nobile-Montepulciano-2020-Red-Wine-Flatiron-Wines-Spirits-New-York.jpg?v=1758292799","url":"https:\/\/nyc.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/dei-vino-nobile-montepulciano-2020-750ml","provider":"Flatiron Wines \u0026 Spirits NYC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
