Montepulciano

Montepulciano confusingly shares its name with the Vino Nobile di Montepulciano of Tuscany. Montepulciano most likely originated in Tuscany, but the grape in Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is Sangiovese! Montepulciano is indigenous to Italy and appears in Abruzzo, Umbria and Marche winemaking.
