About the Wine

“I feel that they are ahead of the curve. Talosa has been a consistently strong performer over the last few years, and this set of new releases is a perfect example of just that.” ~Vinous Media

This Vino Nobile Di Montepulciano Riserva has been extremely well received by some of the most influential wine critics in the world. WinesCritic said, "Floral on the nose, it evokes rose petals, wisteria, and violet"

This is Ultra-Luxurious Sangiovese, without the pricetag!

Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is the first Italian DOC. This place, -also referred to as “The King of All Wines”- was known to be the favorite of some of the most influential Popes, Kings, and Presidents of Italy. Montepulciano in Tuscany holds some of the world’s greatest hidden treasures. One of them is Fattoria Della Talosa.

Talosa’s story began over 50 years ago when Angelo Jacorossi acquired this stunning historical estate. And when we say stunning, we really mean it. The Jacorossi family immediately set their sights on producing top-quality wines, transforming this estate into a benchmark for Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Today, the winery is still managed by the third generation of the Jacorossi family.

The estate spans more than 80 acres of vineyards, nestled in the beautiful Pietrose Cru—one of the most renowned Crus in Montepulciano. Located at an altitude of 350–400 meters, the vineyards face southwest, benefiting from perfect terroir conditions. The medium-textured soils, rich in Pliocene origin, Tuff, and clayey sands, combined with the expertise of winemakers Christian and Luigi, result in wines that are unique, powerful, and unforgettable.

The estate itself is simply breathtaking—like stepping onto the set of a medieval movie. Talosa’s historic cellar dates back to the 16th century and is built underground between Tarugi Palace and Sinatti Palace, two of Montepulciano’s oldest buildings. Visiting this place is like taking a step back in time.

Tasting Notes

100% Sangiovese.

Deep red color. The bouquet opens rich and complex on the nose, showing aromas of red berries, floral notes of forest violets, and hints of spices. On the palate, this super Vino Nobile Riserva shows an elegant combination of density and freshness, well-integrated acidity, and full-bodied taste, embedded in soft, ripe tannins that give this powerful wine a remarkable texture. 

Critic Reviews

Floral on the nose, it evokes rose petals, wisteria, and violet. The secondary notes include guarana, peppermint, and wild calamint. On the palate, it's full-bodied, with enveloping tannins and a bright, savory finish. ~94 WinesCritic.com

Compact and structured, this shows deep, dark-fruited aromas of currants, blackberries, mocha, cedar, dried roses and graphite. The palate is firm, with chewy tannins and a steady backbone of acidity. The finish is long, focused, taut and lightly austere. Try from 2027. ~ 92 James Suckling

Started by a Roman entrepreneur in the 1970s and still owned by the family, Talosa has grown into being a regional wine destination and wine villa. This Riserva bottling is indicative of the brand’s wines – interesting, enjoyable, and relatively affordable for its category and quality. It tastes a little gamier and more alcoholic than the other Vino Nobles in the portfolio with good dark berry flavors, hints of savory herbs and a crisp Sangiovese finish. ~ 91 Wine Review Online
