Perched hilltop, a mile or so from the center of the town of Montepulciano, Ortaglia's estate includes olive groves, a bed & breakfast, views of San Biagio's famous dome, and of course, terrific wines. For their Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Reserva, after over a year's aging in huge botti (1000+ liter casks), the wine is matured for another two years in bottle before release.
