Tasting Table at Cantina del Redi Winery
Cantina Crociani
| Located in Tuscany south of Florence in the town of Montepulciano is the farm and winery Cantina Crociani. Montepulciano is renowned for the wine Vino Nobile Di Montepulciano. The wine name means" wine of nobles from Montepulciano" The wine is given the highest status in Italy, D.O.C.G. The wine is made from a clone of Sangiovese called Prugnolo Gentile and the grapes Canaiolo Nero and Mammolo.
Arnaldo Crociani was a cellarman as were his father and grandfather. Arnaldo acquired 20 acres of vineyards and olive trees and started his own winery. Arnaldo was very active in the community and truly was "a man of Montepulciano." Now the winery is run by Arnaldo's children: Georgio and Susanna. They also have accomodations for tourists. If you are in Montepulciano stop by and meet Greogia and Susanna. |

2007 Rosso di Montepulciano, DOC
| I tasted this offering from Cantina Crociani in April at VinItaly and loved it. Lots of soft fruit. A Great Buy!
Great to drink throughout the meal, but in particular with pasta and meat sauce, and red and white meats.
Grape varieties similar to those of Vino Nobile (Prugnolo, Canaiolo and Mammolo), to which small percentages of white grapes may be added. This bright ruby red wine is intense, fruity and flowery. Released for sale the year following the harvest, after 6/8 months' ageing in oak barrels.
