Montepulciano
A medieval and Renaissance hill town and comune in the Italian province of Siena in southern Tuscany. Montepulciano is a major producer of food and drink. Renowned for its pork, cheese, “pici” pasta, lentils, and honey, it is known worldwide for its Nobile wine. Connoisseurs consider its Vino Nobile, which should not be confused with varietal wine merely made from the Sangiovese grape, among Italy’s best.
