Montepulciano dates back to the late 1700s; however, in the 20th & 21st centuries, due to its welcoming palate & easy drinkability, it became the 2nd most widely exported variety. While such popularity has led to many companies producing large quantities of mediocre wines, we limit yields, resulting in our mature, balanced & complex wines.
