Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG 2019 (BIO)
Salcheto's garnet-red sparkling Vino Nobile delights us with fragrant dried plum and a hint of cinnamon and clove. On the palate, much present fruit, fine, sweet melting in the long finish. An authentic and pleasantly elegant organic wine from the heart of the Montepulciano region. SUPERIORE.DE
"A recognisable Vino Nobile with finesse! On the nose, lots of sour cherry and rum pot plums, combined with violet scents. Then there is even a lot of lilac, which resonates in the fragrance, and one immediately thinks of a chocolate dessert with cherries. On the palate, it is long and clearly drier and more elegant than the nose predicts. The tannins are well rounded. The 2 years between oak and glass have elegantly defined it. This Vino Nobile offers great drinking pleasure and otherwise it is a pleasure to discover such a sustained good winery." Vinum
"Rich ruby with a slightly brightening rim. Clearly marked nose with fine notes of fresh cherries, some violets, underpinned by cloves. Polished, finely meshed tannin characterises the course, showing juicy fruit, firm pressure in the final." Falstaff
"Dusty dried flowers, crushed rocks, lavender and red currants - all these are found when the 2019 Nobile di Montepulciano opens in the glass. The palate is flooded with a silky texture contrasted by tart wild berries and a salty sensation created by a pronounced minerality towards the end. The result is both savoury and sweet and full of savoury tension, while the 2019 finishes with a bitter cherry pit flavour." Vinous
"The 18 hectares of Vino Nobile that surround the Salcheto estate offer a picturesque view of the town of Montepulciano to the north. The self-sufficient estate is a model of true green initiatives, and the wines are among the top of the Denomination of Origin. The 2019 captures the warmth of the vintage, with sun-warmed raspberries and cherries, fragrant violets and yellow broom. It's fresh and juicy, full of concentrated, joyful fruit, while soft, suede-like tannins effortlessly lock everything in. Sounds deceptively simple, but is actually quite sophisticated." Decanter
"A fairly full-bodied Vino Nobile with dried strawberries, plums, hazelnuts and some blood orange on the nose. The fruit is juicy but the mouthfeel is round and smooth. The tannins are supportive and fine." James Suckling

"Refinement rather than strength, a refinement intended to refine the qualities of an excellent fruit. Floral on the nose, touches of peony, red blackberry and pepper leaf, with a nutmeg finish. The palate confirms the initial impression, iodine, crisp, persistent, with a fruity return." Luca Gardini

"Black cherry and raspberry are on the nose, with an herbal, medicinal component expressed in a last aroma of salted black licorice. The palate stays earthy and herbal but brings in dark chocolate and a peppery heat with grippy tannins." Wine Enthusiast

“Salco” Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG 2016 (BIO)
Racy and seductive Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Very intense bouquet of fruit, tobacco, herbs and toasted notes. Voluminous and harmoniously round on the palate, silky-sweet tannins and excellent length. SUPERIORE.DE
"Dark luminous garnet red with an impenetrable core. Opens in the bouquet on boiled down blackberry, plum roast, also some cinnamon, wrapped in delicate mocha and dried tangerines. Stretches out a comforting dress, powerfully rich in tannin, shows tension in attack and progression, finishes slightly salty with lovely persistence." Falstaff
"A plummy nose, accented by toasted spice and licorice. Full-bodied with fine, velvety tannins. Well structured with lots of flavor that veers into the, bitter, Campari-like zone right at the end." James Suckling
"Darkly floral and alluring, the 2016 Nobile di Montepulciano Salco slowly blossoms in the glass with a display of ripe plums, clove, dried flowers and sweet tobacco. Its creamy textures are complemented by an elegant wave of ripe red and black fruits that flesh out across the palate, leaving saline-minerals and a coating of fine tannin in their wake. This tapers off long and lightly structured, leaving notes of blackberry and spice to linger long. The 2016 Salco is a beauty, yet it could use another year or two of cellaring to integrate its oak." Vinous
"Ripe plum, baking spice, menthol and new leather are just some of the aromas you'll find on this fantastic Sangiovese. On the elegantly structured, delicious palate, notes of ground pepper and licorice accent a core of juicy black cherry and crushed raspberry set against a backbone of taut, refined tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it nicely balanced." Wine Enthusiast
"This features a core of ripe, sweet plum, blackberry and spice flavors, accented by earth, wild herbs and tobacco. Though dense and muscular, there's also a beam of vibrant acidity that keeps this focused and fresh." Wine Spectator

Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG 2018 (BIO) · MAGNUM
Salcheto's garnet-red sparkling Vino Nobile delights us with fragrant dried plum and a hint of cinnamon and clove. On the palate, much present fruit, fine, sweet melting in the long finish. An authentic and pleasantly elegant organic wine from the heart of the Montepulciano region. SUPERIORE.DE
"Appealing bouquet of black cherries and herbs; powerful texture, the acidity invigorating and in harmony with the tannins, finishes long. Convinces with its powerful fruity style. Goes well with game dishes." Vinum
"Brilliantly shining garnet red. At first smell, rich spicy notes of rosemary, black olives and cedar, then ripe blueberry and cassis. Fills the mouth completely, presents itself in a stoffig woven tannin dress, with good structure, compact, pithy, with some persistence in the finish." Falstaff
"A core of black cherry, plum and blueberry fruit is augmented by earth, tobacco and rosemary in this chunky red, which is balanced, with a light granular quality to the tannins. The herb elements linger, along with the fruit." Wine Spectator
"Salchetto’s launching pad Vino Nobile is crafted from the estate’s organically farmed 15 hectares and is the choicest selection of grapes. Appealing from the get-go, this 100% Sangiovese smells of summer’s bounty with cherry, plum, blackberry and strawberry. Hints of flint, iron and garden herbs provide nuance. The palate is fruit-laden but not heavy, and there is lovely freshness. Dry, linear tannins are sandy in texture and speak to the wine’s serious side." Decanter
"This superb estate is basically a guarantee of great, delicious wines, even in difficult vintages as this savory red proves. It opens with heady aromas of wild berry, truffle, blue flower and dark spice while the racy, polished palate features juicy strawberry, blood orange, licorice and cocoa. It's balanced and focused, with vibrant acidity and taut, refined tannins." Wine Enthusiast

Fine Nobile Riserva with spicy notes of clove and cinnamon on a clear fruit base of wild berries. Soft, full-bodied and with delicate tannins on the palate, it finishes long and dynamic. SUPERIORE.DE
"Dark ruby red. Expressive and fragrant on the nose, with notes of rose hips, pomegranate, blood oranges, plus red berries, wild berry syrup, reverberating on mint and balsamic notes. On the palate polished and juicy, with a clear fruit core wrapped in precisely placed tannin, noble use of wood supports the ensemble, great length." Falstaff
"The 2018 Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva is dark and brooding in the glass. Dried black cherries, dusty florals and savory spice hints form its bouquet. This displays ample depth with silky textures lifted by saline-tinged acids as cooling herbal tones and bright red fruits settle upon the senses. It finishes structured and long with a staining of primary concentration and licorice notes that linger on." Vinous
"For Salcheto’s Riserva, winemaker Michele Manelli adds a small percentage of dried grapes during fermentation with the goal of increasing weight and concentration as well as achieving more mature, resolved tannins. Aromas are ripe and upfront, leading with oak notes before mint chocolate meets macerated cherry. Wood takes a back seat on the palate, where rich fruit and supple tannins fill the mouth. The vintage’s fresh acidity keeps this elegant." Decanter
"Marked by vanilla and resinous oak, this red delivers plum, blackberry and iron flavors. Rigid now, with fine depth and a lingering spicy finish. Give this a year or two to absorb the oak." Wine Spectator
"Savory dark spices, brown walnuts and some tar to the dried orange peel and earthy plums. Full-bodied with tight tannins and a rather mineral-driven center palate. Savory and long." James Suckling

In the beginning, hardly anyone believed that this forward-looking project could be successful. But oenologist Michele Manelli has succeeded in trimming the Salcheto winery in Montepulciano, named after a stream, to sustainability with a very competent team. In order to keep environmental pollution within very narrow limits, there is no electrical light in the basement, for example. Lighting is provided exclusively via light shafts and mirror systems that direct daylight into even the remotest corners. In addition, the Emilia-based tile expert and visionary estate manager was the first winemaker in the world to have the CO2 footprint of a bottle of wine certified. In addition to climate-damaging emissions, water consumption in the vineyard and cellar is also minimised. In addition, a biodiversity index was designed to monitor the biological quality of the soil and the ecosystem on the estate. The Azienda Agricola Salcheto has been named Green Winery of the Year 2014 by the Wine Guide Gambero Rossofor its pioneering ecological role.
Since it began producing wine in 1987, the winery, which has evolved from a classic farm, has almost exclusively used the Prugnolo Gentile grape variety, as Sangiovese is called in the small West Tuscan cultivation zone. Vinification takes place according to the following method "Governo Toscano". Domestic yeasts are used in the fermentation process and no sulphur is added. Determine in the ripening cellar "dope" and tonneaus the overall picture.
The success of Manellis' ecological adventure, which began in 1997 and was based uncompromisingly on biodynamics, can be seen above all in a wine. In the past, for example, each vintage of the Vino Nobile Salco Evoluzione, accompanied by many experiments, reached a reliably high level. This wine, which comes from the most important vineyard of Salco and is named after a willow tree that is widespread in the growing area, is only sold six years after the grape harvest. Salcheto's wines are authentic, elegant and soft. They have distinctive aromas and perfectly reflect the terroirs of the individual vineyards.
To celebrate its 30th anniversary, the Montepulciano-based winery presented the "Bordolese Toscanella" a new environmentally friendly bottle. It should be the lightest wine bottle available on the market. Its elegant shape evokes memories of the history of noble Tuscan drops.
The Salcheto Winery is one of the 24 wineries worldwide to be awarded the "Robert Parker Green Emblem" in 2021. This certification is awarded by one of the most important international wine critics' media: Robert Parker's "Wine Advocate". This rare distinction is only awarded to producers who are committed to sustainability, long-term environmental protection and biodiversity. Once a winery has received the award, all of its wines will bear the coveted "Robert Parker Green Emblem". SUPERIORE.DE
"The Salcheto winery, built in 2011, is fully fueled by renewable energy, thanks to geothermic energy to cool temperatures, biomass heating technology, solar panels, reflecting surfaces and shafts that direct sunlight deep into the underground fermentation and aging areas thanks to a complicated exchange of mirrors and tubes. Rainwater and wastewater are collected, purified and recycled, and the entire property is planted to grapevines and local willow trees ("salice" in Italian, from which Salcheto takes its name) to help offset emissions." Robert Parker
