Crociani Rosso di Montepulciano DOC 2024 from Tuscany is a vibrant, Sangiovese‑led Rosso that channels the feel of baby Vino Nobile in a more youthful, ready‑to‑drink style. Made from roughly 80% Sangiovese (Prugnolo Gentile) with Canaiolo and Mammolo, it shows lively ruby colour and a vinous, floral nose of bright cherry, red berries and violets with a touch of earthy spice.

On the palate it is dry, medium‑bodied and juicy, with ripe cherry, red currant and plum wrapped in gentle, fine tannins and fresh acidity. There is a savoury undercurrent – a little earth, bramble and herb – that keeps it properly Tuscan without sacrificing approachability, finishing smooth, bright and moreish.

This Rosso di Montepulciano is made for the table: perfect with pasta al ragù, wild‑mushroom risotto, pizza, grilled pork, Tuscan sausages or a board of pecorino, salami and prosciutto. It is an ideal “house red” for anyone who loves Chianti‑style Sangiovese but wants something a touch juicier and more immediate.
