Dei
At the same time as replanting many of her vineyards and having enlarged and restructured the cellars, Caterina Dei is now making the best wines of her career to date. While these are not the showiest wines of Montepulciano (she very much eschews the excessive use of new oak), they are almost perfect examples of Sangiovese from the area (specifically Prugnolo Gentile). They also remain very well-priced.

2006 VINO NOBILE DI MONTEPULCIANO Bossona Riserva Dei
Montepulciano Tuscany Italy
A rich savoury nose (almost marmite), richly tannic with masses of silky fruit and great length this has massive potential. Tannic and young, but totally not aggressive and with absolutely no discernabale oak, this is a lovely and exceptional expression of Sangiovese.
