Hidden Tuscany Rating
The Silìneo 2021 from Fattoria del Cerro is a Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG made from Prugnolo Gentile, fermented in steel and aged in wood for at least 2 years, at €16.90. No distinction or farming practice is specified, which limits the estate's recognition.
Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG appellation named, Prugnolo Gentile (Sangiovese) grape variety and Montepulciano zone specified: clear Tuscan anchoring, without soil or sub-zone detail.
No award or guide mentioned; the producer Fattoria del Cerro is named but without attested reputation in the texts, so score within the range of a simple absence.
At €16.90 (crossed-out price €18.72) for a Montepulciano DOCG, the price remains moderate for the appellation, with no distinction or format that would justify more.
Specific pairings (red meats, game, aged cheeses), aromatic profile described (red fruits, spices, balsamic notes) and serving temperature indicated between 16 and 18 °C: clear versatility.
Estate named and located in Montepulciano, vinification in steel tanks then aging in wood with a minimum of 2 years: detailed practices, with no mention of manual harvesting or organic methods.

Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself in the heart of Tuscany, where the hills roll on endlessly. It is in this landscape that I discovered a wine that perfectly embodies the balance between tradition and modernity: the Silìneo 2021 from Fattoria del Cerro. It is not just a wine, it is an invitation to contemplation, a caress for the senses.
Fattoria del Cerro, nestled in the iconic landscapes of Montepulciano, is an estate that masters the art of elevating Prugnolo Gentile, the local name for Sangiovese. It is here, on these generous lands, that this Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG is born. The estate is committed to respecting the potential of this unique grape variety, while adopting an innovative approach to its vinification.
The Silìneo 2021 is the result of meticulous fermentation in steel tanks, followed by aging in wood. This method allows the wine to develop its complexity while preserving the freshness of its aromas. In your glass, its intense red color already promises a rich tasting experience. On the nose, you will be charmed by notes of red fruits and cherry, to which are added fine spicy and balsamic touches. On the palate, the taste is balanced, with a tannic component that is present but discreet, providing beautiful structure without ever dominating.
This Silìneo 2021 is an ideal companion for your meals. I recommend serving it between 16° and 18°C in medium-sized glasses to appreciate all its nuances. It will pair wonderfully with grilled red meats, slow-cooked game, or aged cheeses. It is the perfect wine for a convivial evening with friends or a romantic dinner, a true ode to the Tuscan sweet life that I am delighted to introduce to you.
