TN: Poliziano Il Vino Nobile Di Montepulciano 1998 (Tuscany, Italy)

Predominantly Sangiovese (as you would expect). Purple red in colour – darker than expected. Lots of black and sour cherries on the nose – a surprising amount of fruit sweetness for its age. There’s also plums, some chocolate, and dried herbs. Medium finish only (no complaints there!).
I was pleasantly surprised by how well this held up given its age (and this bodes well for the younger bottles in the cellar).
